Other Skills

Brand strategy

I expand my knowledge and experience attending lot of conferences and getting engaged in self-initiated projects. 

In 2017  I attended a course of Image Communication on University of Wroclaw as a free listener, learning about branding and brand strategy. 

I am passionate strategic thinker – not seeing design as a outer layer, but a tool to translate very comprehensive ideas and structures into understandable and organised form.

Teaching through storytelling

I treat design projects more like writing a book – I love creating a story and the world in which I want to immerse user and create experiences. 

That’s what also Narny.World is about. Apart from backpacks, I want to tell stories which educate, inspire and create community.

fairy tale Neuropsychology

The latest side project I am working on now is a guide about how our brains function told through fairy tale storytelling. I am very passionate about cognitive psychology and neuropsychology, so I took a challenge of illustrating different brain systems as imagined characters – which are the main characters leading the Narny.World story.

I love doing comprehensive research before starting a project – digging to the deepest depths of a design problem.
