“…But…to sing,
to dream, to smile, to walk, to be alone, be free,
with a voice that stirs and an eye that still can see!
To cock your hat to one side, when you please
at a yes, a no, to fight, or- make poetry!
To work without a thought of fame or fortune,
on that journey, that you dream of, to the moon!”
Cyrano de Bergerac, Edmond Rostand (1897).
Hi !
I am Leslie, a graphic designer, illustrator and videographer living in Aberdeen, in bonnie Scotland.
Right after having graduated in 2016 from degrees focusing on image creation and curation, I founded my freelance business in Paris before moving to Aberdeenshire in 2020.
Why did I start my freelance activity?
Before I even graduated, I started carefully considering what I wanted to do as a job in my life. I came to the realization that the skills I developed, as well as my training and my aspirations, soon lead me to consider provoking my own chance and opportunities by creating my own job!
Project after project, I am so glad that I did!
I dedicate my work to offering every single professionals contacting me the same chance to develop a universe of their own and to order contents that are unique to them and their business. In other words: graphic design and videography services should be available to all so we should all have the opportunity to celebrate our uniqueness and share our passion!
Let’s talk about your project
Or start by having a look at my portfolio!
The projects I’d looove to work on one day
· Developing the identity of an art festival’s edition!
· Working on creating promotional contents for an organization defending the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community.
· Creating a unique brand design for a business employing disabled people and addressing the needs of disabled audiences.
Wee anecdotes about me
🌙 I love cats, I adopted my little black kitty Yuzu in 2020. He is my Joy, ranking in my heart right after my partner and love of my life, of course!
🌙 I am super empathetic. I am much moved when people start sharing personal experience, be they joyful or difficult to receive.
I am also often moved to the core by films, books, paintings, musics… I like to think about this character’s trait as a special gift since it makes my life so much more positively intense!
🌙 My favorite series of all time is, without hesitating, Adventure Time. No other animated shows have ever won my heart like this one did. In regards of my favorite book, I read the play Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand about 6 times at least. And watched its TV adaptation like… 8 times? For me, it’s one of the best examples that we can paint images with words.
🌙 I fell in love with Scotland when I first visited the country at 15 years old. I had the chance to undertake my Master degree in Edinburgh before getting back to France where I felt increasingly homesick for a place I just knew I had to call my home for good. I finally acted upon my dreams and my partner and I moved to Aberdeen in 2020!
🌙 I dream to travel to Japan! I want to plan a trip from Scotland by travelling only by land or by sea. No plane! 🌱
