My Story

Hi, I’m Chrissy, a 24-year-old illustrator and graphic designer from Bulgaria!

My design journey might surprise you. I actually started as a medical student and spent four intense years working in healthcare, including on the COVID-19 ward, COVID-19 resuscitation, and vascular surgery. Yep, it was as stressful as it sounds! But during that time, I realized that my true passion has always been art.

 

So, while still in medical school, I decided to make a bold move and started studying graphic design and change my career. I’ll be getting my diploma at the start of 2025, but I’ve been working as a freelance designer for three years already, building up my skills through professional courses along the way.

When it comes to my work, nature is a huge inspiration for me, and I believe my love for travel enriches that creativity even more. I’ve visited 22 countries (and counting), and each adventure has opened my eyes to new cultures, landscapes, and ideas. These experiences not only fuel my passion for art but also provide me with a vast perspective on the world, which translates into my designs.

 

My illustrations reflect my love for nature, and I’m always ready to take on new creative challenges. Thanks to my time working in the hospital, I’m no stranger to working under pressure—so deadlines? Bring them on! I pride myself on my strong work ethic and delivering all projects on time. I’m always learning, growing, and ready to explore new things—both in art and in life!

Accomplishments

In June 2023 I took part in the annual SoftUni FEST competition. It was a great challenge because you have to develop a whole brand idea, design it, and then present it in only 48 hours. My team and I worked hard and are proud that we were second out of 200 people.
