Designer for communities
Erika is a designer based in Massachusetts. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication Design in 2025 and has professional experience as a graphic designer for over three years, working across design, digital, social media, and print. One thing about her is that she is a community-driven creative who strives to do work that directly impacts the communities. She is her best self when the work she does matters, alongside people who believe in the same mission. What she is walking toward is just as clear. She is a ‘glass half full’ kind of designer who believes that a brand is more than what you see, but also how it should work and how it solves a problem. It is a feeling, a promise, and a position in the world. She helps brands position themselves thoughtfully and communicate their position in ways that make people see past the surface. Not just because it looks good, but also because it means something.
She thrives in spaces where not only ideas are shared, but stories too. When she is not designing, she is outside playing soccer or frisbee with her fiancé and their fur baby, spending time with nature, staying curious, or watching the NBA.
