Hi, I’m Nelly! I have had a passion for creativity from an early age. My 3 years at Reading have been a transformative experience offering me the chance to develop and build on my skills. Above all, the Real Jobs Scheme has provided me with a number of opportunities to gain professional experience with real clients. This has given me an insight into the creative challenges of delivering a brief and a wider understanding of the overall dynamics within the industry. I pride myself on my attention to detail. I’m quick to adapt and eager to learn. I’m constantly seeking new opportunities and pushing myself to explore new things.
Aesop bar soap packaging
I undertook the challenge of redesigning Aesop's packaging with a specific focus on their bar soaps. The current packaging, whilst functional, lacks character. For this packaging project, I proposed a redirection for the brand to commit to using all-natural ingredients and work towards sustainability. The new packaging design embodies this shift through the use of geometric style patterns that evoke natural elegance. Each soap bar features refined gold foiling details to highlight the brand’s luxury.

Mexicanwave is designed for the culturally curious and for those who have a taste for authenticity.
SheRuns web app
SheRuns is a web app designed specifically for female runners, it focuses on inspiring and empowering women to run. It was prevalent from research into the current market of running apps, that many do not cater to or consider the unique needs of female runners. SheRuns is the missing female-only platform that provides all sorts of features that female runners need. It has been created to fill this void by addressing these needs and creating a more supportive environment for women.
