👋 Hello, I’m Marina - a graphic designer and visual storyteller. I design with purpose and impact, transforming big ideas into visuals that communicate, resonate, and connect people to brands.
I build brands that connect. I blend strategy, audience insight, and bold creative choices to create identities that feel both trend-aware and timeless. With 8 years of freelance and in-house experience, I push color, iconography, and simplicity to craft brands speak to their audience.
With 8 years in CPG packaging, from TJ Maxx to Macy’s and Costco, I design for the full shelf experiences. I balance trend, function, and impact. From concept to copy to factory-ready files, I lead every stage of the process while working seamlessly within (and beyond) brand guidelines.
I create campaigns that expand audiences through clear messaging and captivating visuals, blending my branding and packaging expertise into strategic storytelling. As a natural communicator and problem-solver, I design marketing that connects with real consumers like me.
I’m a creative designer, director and artist through and through. I am a leader who understands that design is communication in its purest form. With a deep foundation in design principles and cross-industry experience, I can create in any medium with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
