Erika. Designer. INFJ. Trilingual. Runs on iced matcha lattes.
I’m a Chicago-based designer who loves crafting thoughtful brand systems and experiences. Guided by the belief that design has the power to create meaningful connections and lasting impact, I approach every project with intention and care. Along the way, my work has been recognized with awards in the design world.
I earned my BFA in Visual Communication from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. With years of agency experience, I worked my way up to become a Design Director, leading projects across branding, UI design, print, and more. Now, I’ve taken the leap into freelancing, collaborating directly with brands to bring creative visions to life.
In my free time, you’ll find me shooting for brands and Chicago’s best restaurants at TheBaoEats, running Eniwill™ (a brand I built with my mom!) or baking treats to share with my loved ones 🍰
