Hi there! You can call me Jai - it's my nickname 😊 • About Me • I am a professional vector/raster artist and a creative individual with experience in various areas of art, design, illustration, and project management. I am enthusiastic, hardworking, detail-oriented, with excellent communication and design management skills. • Personal Background • I have always been passionate about art and design, especially character design in RPG games. From a young age, I wrote stories and particularly enjoyed illustrating them, bringing those characters to life. I could spend entire days drawing, immersed in the fantasy world of characters I created. After graduating in 2010 with a BA in Communication Design from KMUTT, I worked for an advertising agency and a game company as a graphic designer. Later on, I secured a leadership position as a project manager at another game studio specialising in developing games for iOS and Android devices. My primary role was to manage and lead discussions among diverse teams of graphic designers, programmers, external partners, and clients under tight deadlines. In addition to my leadership role, I also contributed to game graphic design and shared new ideas to create and develop the essential Game Design Document (GDD). Always eager to learn and grow, I completed an MA in Design Management at Southampton University in 2016, where I achieved top marks in Marketing. Afterward, I joined Advocate Art in London as a designer and illustrator, helping to create motivational and inspirational children’s stories where kids could form personal connections with the characters. After Brexit, I returned to my home country and joined Qatar Airways as a cabin crew member from December 2017 to March 2020. At the end of 2021, I transitioned into a freelance graphic designer and became a Top Rated Plus within a year.
