Hello,

I am a graphic designer with skills in production, painting and photography. Click here to view my resume.

Lately, I have been writing a lot about my past work in cover letters and other sad attempts at persuasive paragraphs. But I don’t want to talk about my past anymore. I want to design. I want to create amazing graphic design works. I believe that good design is really about people. With that in mind, I invite you to take a moment to learn more about me:

  • My working definition of great graphic design is a visual combination of form, function, and aesthetics. 
  • I have a senseless need to travel. I am an explorer, adventurer and creator.
  • “Keep it simple but make it smart” constantly cycles through my head as I work.
  • Mexican food intimidates me.
  • I believe broccoli and the crusts on PB&J sandwiches are to be discarded as quickly as possible.
  • My favorite indication of a good logo is that it can be mentally applied to multiple mediums instantly.
  • I have a very active love/hate relationship with colors. They challenge me.
  • Paint is mushy, movable and mixable, that’s why I enjoy painting.
  • I want to keep bees, make mead, and own a letterpress but I need to learn more first.
  • I like quirky interesting people, especially those who are ok with being quirky and interesting.
  • In case of emergency I often carry: tiger balm, tea bags, a pencil, business cards, and a sweater.
  • It helps me to draw diagrams when explaining how I feel about my family.

    • I would love to hear from you! Contact me with any questions, comments, suggestions, or links to hilarious British comedy clips.

    Please stay a while and check out my work,

    — Elena
