Art Director & Brand Identity Designer | Strategic Branding

Your brand's visual identity is one of the strongest assets a business can invest in early. I help startups and growing businesses build brand identities that look established from day one: logo systems, visual identity, and brand guidelines that work across every touchpoint and hold up as the business scales. In 10+ years as an Art Director and Brand Designer, I've worked with founders who wanted to look credible fast, and with teams ready to bring greater consistency and polish to a brand as it grows. What I deliver: — Brand identity & visual identity systems — Logo design (primary, secondary, submarks) — Brand guidelines & style guides — Color, typography, layout principles — Packaging, pitch decks, marketing collateral My process is intentional: we define a clear visual direction first, then build a system you can apply consistently for years to come. ★★★★★ "Executed concepts and designs above expectation. Could not ask for more from a designer." ★★★★★ "She has over-delivered on every task. I'll be forever grateful." ★★★★★ "Absolutely stunning designs and impressive turnaround times. She is a magician!"

I’m a Senior Brand & Packaging Designer and Creative Director with over 25 years of international experience in branding, packaging and visual communication. I work with brands on Brand Identity, Packaging Design and Creative Direction, with particular experience in Beauty, Skincare, Wellness, CPG, Supplements, Cosmetics, Food & Beverage and Pet Care. My work covers the process from initial creative direction and visual identity through packaging design and final production artwork. CORE EXPERTISE • Brand Identity & Visual Identity — brand positioning, visual language, typography, colour systems, brand architecture and guidelines. • Packaging Design — bottles, tubes, pouches, cartons, rigid boxes, labels and multi-SKU packaging systems. • Creative Direction & Art Direction — developing the overall visual direction and ensuring consistency across packaging, brand communications and other touchpoints. • Packaging Production — dielines, print-ready artwork, materials and finishes, including embossing, debossing, foil stamping, spot UV and other specialist finishes. • Brand & Packaging Systems — creating flexible design systems that can be applied consistently across products, SKUs, formats and markets. Over the years, I’ve worked on projects ranging from new brand launches and rebrands to individual packaging projects and complete product ranges. My portfolio includes beauty and skincare, wellness and supplements, premium consumer products, food & beverage and pet care, as well as work for established brands and growing businesses. With more than 25 years in the industry, I understand how to balance brand positioning, visual impact, practical design and production requirements. I’m also the Founder & Creative Director of Korvin Brand Studio, an international brand and packaging design studio. HOW I WORK I prefer to work through written, asynchronous communication. It keeps briefs, feedback, decisions and project details clear and documented, and allows me to stay focused on the actual design work. I generally don’t take introductory video calls or routine Zoom meetings. If you have a project in mind, send me the brief, requirements and timeline. I’ll review everything and get back to you if I feel the project is a good fit. I work with founders, brands, agencies and teams looking for an experienced designer who can take responsibility for both the creative direction and the details of the final execution. If you have a project you’d like to discuss, send me the details, and I’ll take a look.
