I’m Erik Kesten, 23-year-old Graphics designer driven by always improving, finding new methods and solutions.
I believe it's important to explore different areas of work to acquire new expertises as well as insights.
Seeking balance with my love for gaming, fitness and overall wellbeing along with creating visually appealing designs is an ongoing endeavor.
In highschool, I chose to specialize in graphic and web design which ignited a flame within me.
I continued onwards in the same path at university and graduated in 2023 as a Media Technician.
Alongside my passion for creating, I provide a fresh perspective to my work through my youthful spirit, embracing challenges and seeing them as an opportunity to grow.
