About Me

Hello, my name is Anna,
I'm a 25-year-old designer based in Greece and I have graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. At the moment I'm working for the London-based brand and in my free time, I paint. I have attended universities like Central Saint Martins, Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Middlesex University and Polimoda. My big journey of preparation and research for my education required hard work and dedication. This process often had me feeling stressed and devastated. That's the reason why I would like to help and facilitate the young generations to make a proper portfolio/application with someone that shares their passion and agony. I'm very calm, patient and engaging with my students, always experimenting and seeking creative solutions for each individual.

Feel free to message me!

I’m so grateful to Anna! She has such a high level of expertise, and her advices were very helpful for me (I had three consultations about my portfolio). I love her way of teaching — so structured, you can apply everything she is telling you right away. Also, I was charmed by her ability to go deeply into my meaning, understand my ideas, and share her views on how to enhance them. And as a person, Anna is so attentive, considerate, and kind. I will definitely turn to Anna again when I need help. Thank you so much, Anna. I’m so happy I found you, wish you all the best! :)
