Hello :)
Born in the cornfields of Pickerington, Ohio, I’m Gabriella, a graphic designer out of New York City currently making waves in the design world (or at least playful splashes).
My origin story involved a lot of art kits gifted by my dad, questionable usage of fonts (my favorite used to be papyrus - don’t judge me), and a hyper fixation on making everything ~aesthetic~. I eventually found myself interested in creative direction, creating conceptual ad campaigns or music video treatments with set designs and/or print materials to bring them to life.
Fast forward to today, and I’ve had the chance to work on everything from UX design to brand design. My proudest moment? Probably when I realized people would pay me to do it.
When I’m not designing, you can catch me tap dancing, walking around Whole Foods just for fun, or brainstorming ideas for what my future tea house in Switzerland will look like (a girl can dream).
