Hello!
I’m Carla, a California-based visual designer who specializes in creating impactful websites and elevating brands for creators, retailers, and small businesses. I love helping clients reach their maximum potential, and my ultimate success comes in becoming a trustworthy design partner; someone you can depend on to make any project easy and enjoyable.
I discovered my love for design while studying urban design at UCLA. In seeing how the built environment impacts our day-to-day lives, I began to translate that into the ways visual design can impact our experiences with digital content and media. Urban design is about balancing form and functionality and I like to practice this ethos in the design realm, producing modern websites and print materials that are both pretty and purposeful.
​
After working as a project manager and print designer in an awarding-winning research studio and think tank, I began my freelance career specializing in website design, logo and branding identity, and print and layout design; applying the same meticulous attention to detail and solutions-based strategy that I did toward my research work toward helping my clients elevate their brands and reach their goals.
​
As someone living with a disability, I am a vocal advocate for social and spatial justice and get the most satisfaction from collaborating with like-minded thinkers and doers. When I’m not designing, I enjoy volunteer work, moderating a group of 2,000+ volunteers for Vote Save America, and advocating for access to healthcare with groups like Cure SMA.
All of these experiences allow me to approach design with a toolset many artists don’t typically have; thriving on empathy, organization, task lists, clear communication, and purpose driven work. I found that this perspective allows me to better connect with my clients, translating into a fun and effective collaborative design process; one that leaves them energized by the design process.
I approach all my work with an emphasis on compassion, accessibility, and positivity and am proud to partner with organizations and individuals that strive toward these common goals.
