ABOUT
Hi, I’m Paulina! I am a graphic and web
designer (amongst other things) with over
seven years of experience. I am passionate
about helping businesses ‘bridge the gap’
between their brand and the audience.
As a business owner myself, I understand
the importance of strategy and planning in
the visual communication. I love learning
new skills, and I am always on a lookout for
exciting projects.
