[ Hello there! ]
My name is Danielle and my pronouns are She /They! I’m a graphic designer based out of San Francisco, CA, and graduate from San Francisco State University, with a Bachelor of Science in Visual Communication Design. Currently seeking to join a creative team full time.
Design has always been an important factor in my life, even when I did not have the vocabulary to talk about it. Creating work that can solve problems visually, while still being beautifully composed and balanced is what feels right to me.
When not making things beautiful, you can find me wandering around SF in search of thrift stores, planning my next adventure abroad, and dancing around concert venues.
