I believe in the power of sharing knowledge to develop skills, build confidence and foster critical thinking. Whether I'm speaking to budding designers, companies or activists, my approach is grounded in real-world application and experience.

Sessions are available as interactive workshops, short talks; online or in-person. I tailor each training to the audience — whether that’s young people, design and communications students, activists, or community groups.
With regards to fees, I aim to keep my training accessible — especially for grassroots groups, NGOs, and community-led initiatives. Fees vary depending on format, duration, and organisation size. Get in touch to discuss what works for you.
BACKGROUND
I have been working at creative agencies for the past 8 years where I grew into a design generalist, becoming well-knowledged in various design fields and creating designs with impact in both print and digital media. I have designed for a variety of clients including food & beverage, spa & beauty, hospitality, startups, tech, non-governmental organisations and government entities.
My work doesn’t stop on paper and screen. For over a decade, I have been involved in the movement for LGBTIQ rights in Malta with a focus on education, intersectionality, inclusion, and social justice. It started with a youth and student LGBTQQI organisation in education and awareness, and later, I was a volunteer and co-coordinator of the Malta LGBTIQ Rights Movement (MGRM) for six years.
At MGRM, I contributed to the development and implementation of community projects and educational resources, as well as worked on design and communications. I also represented the organisation in national and international meetings with NGOs, stakeholders, and government bodies. Throughout this work, I focused on gender diversity, combatting hate speech and misinformation, inclusive education, communications and reproductive rights.
