I’m Miyanda

A graphic designer with a passion for creativity and problem-solving. I’m currently pursuing my degree at UNSW and running my own freelance business. I believe in the power of design to tell stories and create meaningful connections. Whether through branding, web design, or creative direction, I’m always looking for new ways to push the boundaries and bring fresh ideas to life. Let’s create something great together!

But I’ve had the chance to earn a few recognitions along the way. From leadership roles to scholarly achievements and design awards, these milestones reflect my commitment to growth, excellence, and creativity.
