Multidisciplinary Designer & Art Director
Hi there! I’m Nina.
I am a freelance multidisciplinary designer & art director based in Los Angeles, California. I love incorporating thoughtful, unexpected elements within my design work, and often play with the combination of digital & analog processes. My pursuit of design spurred from a particularly soft spot in my heart for all kinds of printed matter and packaging, although I have been working over the past few years to expand my lexicon as a designer into brand identity, e-commerce and web-design as well. I am currently working on a freelance basis as of October, 2025, prior to which, I worked as a Visual Interactive Desginer on the Ecommerce Design Team at CB2 | Crate & Barrel. (2024-2025) Prior to CB2, I worked as a Graphic Designer with Boston-based integrated advertising and design agency, Colossus Creative Co. (2022-2024) I recieved my Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Visual Communication Design in 2022 as a Destinguished Artist Scholarship recipent (Top 10% of BFA Applicants, 2018) from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in Chicago, Illinois.
Email me to get in contact! I’m always looking for my next freelance project & to connect with interesting people.
