Hi, I'm Nina, a creative marketer and brand designer who bridges strategy and storytelling to help brands stand out, connect, and grow.

I bring an insightful approach to both marketing and design—translating research into clear strategies and creative into cohesive brand experiences. My work spans visual identity, market research, and communications, blending big-picture thinking with hands-on execution.

I've supported global brands in toys, games, and CPG to deliver work that drives impact—strengthening positioning, unifying communications, and building brands that last.

5 WAYS MY APPROACH IS DIFFERENT

1. Strategy-first design. Every asset I create—whether for a pitch deck, style guide, or campaign—ties back to brand strategy and business goals.

2. Visual identity with consistency. I bring cohesion across platforms and markets, ensuring design systems scale while staying true to a brand's essence.

3. Creative + marketing fluency. With hands-on experience in visual execution, research, and strategy development, I close the gap between creative vision and commercial performance.

4. Agile collaboration. I've worked cross-functionally with marketers, distributors, and production teams, supporting complex projects like ad campaigns and global product rollouts.

5. Fast-paced adaptability. Having built campaigns and assets in quick-turn, high-stakes environments, I know how to deliver clarity and quality under pressure.
