Hello! My name is Nina

I’m an illustrative designer with a strong focus on narrative-driven visuals, creating expressive, concept-led work across illustration, layout, and book cover design.

I started my career building things from scratch: illustrations, print products, online communities, and a creative business that grew to 200,000+ followers across platforms. What began as personal artwork evolved into brand collaborations, sponsored campaigns, published print projects, and an online course with thousands of students.

Running my own creative practice meant wearing every hat. I worked as a designer, art director, marketer, production manager, customer support lead, and operations coordinator. I designed for digital and print, handled prepress and layout, created promotional assets, organized global production schedules, and translated ideas into visuals that genuinely connect with audiences.

That experience shaped how I approach design today. I think strategically and systemically, with empathy for both the audience and the team behind the work.

I am now focusing on graphic design and visual communication roles where I can combine creativity with structure, building thoughtful, well-crafted work that is both expressive and functional.
