I am a graphic designer with 10 years of experience in the market.
My first experience, while completing my formal studies, was with my own creative agency called “La Chia”, formed by two other colleagues, where I started in the job market doing branding and social media work for small brands.
Then I entered the international job market through platforms like Freelancer and 99 Design, where I gained extensive experience in different areas of design, in conceptualization and project development with tight deadlines and high competition. I obtained some
of my clients by winning contests (competing with up to 50 other designers) and then building a loyal and stable clientele through one-onone projects that I continue to work on to this day. The areas in which I have the most experience are branding, packaging, and social media.
For the past two years, and up until now, I have been collaborating with Route One Apparel, a large American company that specializes in marketing products for both brand licenses and their own brand.
Route One Apparel is Maryland’s company dedicated to make products for a particular thing: foresting the sense of pride state. They do products and marketing elements for local business, universities and Maryland’s events. Ali Von Paris, the owner, contacted me to collaborate with them making product’s concepts and developing creative designs for particular projects, specific events or marketing campaigns.

I’m a top level designer on this platform. 99D gave me extensive experience in all kinds of designing areas. It trained me to work fast, to make solid concepts development and presentations, to make professional proposals for contests with tight deadlines. Working with clients with different languages, time zones and ways to make things; I’ve learned to have patience, to organize the project’s stages, to communicate clearly concepts and the design’s progress. Currently I’m just working on one on one Projects.
