About Roel

A Brief History

My professional journey began in 1995 when I started working with computers from home. In 2001, I began practicing graphic design, collaborating with various print companies. While my previous jobs have primarily focused on information technology,

I have consistently embraced opportunities that involve creating designs for photography, printing, social media, mobile apps, and websites. To execute these tasks, I always use professional photographic equipment, including lighting, as well as Adobe products to ensure high quality. I truly enjoy the creative process during projects and carefully consider the final product and how users will interpret it.
