Nani Swimwear

As part of my interview process for Nani Swimwear, I was given a design challenge to create social media graphics, email marketing assets, and a website header for their new Sunset Surf collection. The goal was to develop visually engaging designs that align with Nani Swimwear’s adventurous and bold brand identity while appealing to their target audience. This project allowed me to showcase my ability to work within brand guidelines, apply creative problem-solving, and design with a strategic marketing approach.

I’m a graphic designer who loves working with brands that have heart—especially those rooted in adventure, connection, and creativity. Over the last few years, I’ve worked at a marketing agency, started my own design studio, and taken on freelance projects that range from branding cozy bakeries to designing holiday campaigns for mountain resorts. I’m drawn to brands with a strong sense of identity and purpose—outdoor, lifestyle, food, wellness—and I enjoy creating visuals that feel both thoughtful and fun. I care a lot about doing good work, meeting deadlines, and being someone people can count on. Right now, I’m looking for opportunities where I can keep learning, grow as a designer, and contribute to a team that values creativity, collaboration, and making things that matter.
