Photography by@rankinassistantsHi! I'm Alexandra, a London-based visual designer and design manager with a passion for visual storytelling, curation, and design management.
My journey in the creative industries started quite unconventional. For thirteen years I have worked as an international fashion model, a role that provided me with deep insights into the world of fashion and campaign productions. This experience honed my skills in crafting compelling personal brands and stories.
Transitioning from modeling, I began working as a graphic designer for commercial clients, helping companies develop distinct visual identities that reflect their brand values.
Beyond my design education, I'm proud to be the Co-Founder of The Filthy Fox Auction Club. This platform showcases promising art graduates from London's leading art colleges. Our dedication to supporting emerging talent earned us the 'Runner Up' award at the UAL Creative Enterprise Award in July 2022. In November of the same year, we hosted our first successful auction in East London, featuring the works of over 14 artists. Now two years old, Filthy Fox has hosted two auctions and continues to grow as a platform and community.
Thank you for taking the time to read about my journey. If you have any questions or need design assistance, feel free to reach out!
