"Probably the most talented Brand Identity Designer on Upwork. Professional, timely and extremely creative. Highly Recommend."
As a Top Rated Plus, Expert-Vetted Freelancer (Top 1%) and a former Brand Marketing Manager, I bridge the gap between high-level brand strategy and premium visual execution. With over 15 years of industry experience, I don’t just design logos—I build cohesive, strategic visual ecosystems that capture market share and align perfectly with your business goals.
If your business lacks the visual consistency needed to command premium pricing or stand out in a crowded market, I am here to help. Because I approach design with a marketer's mindset, your visual identity will be built to convert, scale, and resonate deeply with your specific audience.

Luxury Fashion Brand Strategist · Social Media · Client Experience · EN·ES·IT
I help fashion and lifestyle brands build stronger identities, grow their social media presence, and deliver exceptional client experiences, combining luxury brand expertise with hands-on digital execution.
With 5+ years at Dior and Isabel Marant and a Master's from Polimoda Florence, I bring something most freelancers don't: I understand luxury brands from the inside out: how they communicate, how they sell, and how they make clients feel. That knowledge shapes everything I create digitally.
What I've delivered for real clients:
• +65% social media engagement growth (ReWi luxury fashion brand, Italy)
• 3x website traffic increase through influencer marketing strategy
• +40% conversion rate from visitor to registered user
• Complete rebranding + Shopify build for a wellness brand (live site)
• #1 Lady Dior sales in-store — €90,000+ in a single month
• +30% customer retention at Isabel Marant through personalised styling
What I can do for your brand:
→ Brand identity — logo, visual system, brand guide, social templates
→ Social media strategy — content pillars, calendar, captions, analytics → Social media management — monthly content, community, reporting
→ Shopify or website design — fashion and lifestyle brands
→ Client experience — multilingual support, CRM, virtual styling (EN · ES · IT)
→ Influencer marketing — strategy, outreach, campaign management
I work best with fashion founders, boutique owners, and lifestyle brands who want a collaborator who understands both the creative and commercial side of the industry.
Based in Florence, Italy. EU citizen. Available immediately.
Let's build something your clients will love!
