Fiona Balleret

Raised in France and educated in the US, I bring a unique perspective shaped by different cultures. Since 2021, Amsterdam has been my base, where I continue to embrace the transformative power of design. My goal is to create designs that are both creative and accessible, positively influencing people's thoughts and emotions.

Prior to transitioning into design, a successful sales career and a consistent outperforming of targets and serving as an assistant team lead. This experience honed collaboration, problem-solving, and customer-centric thinking skills. Close collaboration with an in-house designer solidified my passion for design.
