Hey! My name is Daria. I have over 5 years of experience in graphic design, including 3 working as brand designer. I have a lot of experience working directly with big brands on building design systems. I love to see how everything works smoothly and in sync. That is why my biggest love is to organise different elements of the identity, print matter, website, advertising and other brand attributes together around the values and core principles of the company. I have experience working in cross-functional teams and have had the opportunity to lead a small design team consisting of graphic and UI/UX designers.

My last job was working with an American brand as an independent brand designer. I worked there for 8 months. The founders approached me with the task of creating a complete set of visual materials in order to successfully launch and gain first leads. As a result of our collaboration, I developed a social media strategy and visual identity, created materials for their first exhibition, designed packaging, and developed two e-commerce websites in a team with a web designer.

Before that, I worked as a full-time graphic designer for an educational platform. My core competencies were creating visuals for Instagram, designing banners and visuals for targeted advertising, visual accompaniment to the company blog, and creating educational presentations for students.

I also worked in an advertising agency as a contractor. I  designed stands, banners, packaging and created logos for the agency's clients. I also have experience working with prepress.

My expertise: 
- logo and visual identity design,
- web-design,
- packaging and prepress,
- print design,
- presentation design,
- illustration,
- social media imagery creation. 

My skills:
- Adobe Illustrator
- Adobe Photoshop
- Adobe InDesign
- Adobe Premiere Pro
- Adobe Lightroom
- Figma
- Procreate
Now I am looking for a job that will require my systematic approach to solving problems. I would like to create or maintain corporate identity for one or multiple companies. I would like to be involved in creating a social media strategy, designing printed products and packaging, rendering website layouts, or designing corporate materials and presentations. It would be interesting for me to communicate directly with clients and solve project management issues. I have experience in managing a team working for foreign clients, so I would like to have an opportunity of leading design teams.
I would not want to do a permanent job related to paperwork or preparing large documents for printing.
