Artistic Collaborator / Assistant Set Designer & Visual Designer

The "Aureliu Manea" National Theatre of Turda, Cluj County, Romania • Parttime

Aug 2025 - Present • 1 yr 3 mos

At the "Aureliu Manea" National Theatre in Turda, I worked alongside a full production team to bring a theatrical performance to life from the ground up. In the pre-production phase, I contributed to the set design while leading the visual identity—handling promotional graphic design (posters, flyers, and digital content), as well as photography and videography. Once the production premiered and entered the theatre's official repertoire, my role expanded to live technical execution, managing the soundscapes and visual projections during live shows. I have been collaborating with the theatre since September 2025.

Graphic Designer Junior

Oxygen • Parttime

Feb 2023 - Jun 2023 • 4 mos

During my university studies, I joined Oxygen Comms—a leading Romanian advertising agency—working out of their Cluj-Napoca office. In this role, I focused on social media design, campaign assets, and short-form animations, collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to brainstorm and deliver fast, high-quality creative work. Following this valuable agency experience, I chose to step away to dedicate my full attention to my final Bachelor's thesis.
