About me
I'm 26 years old
based in Santa Barbara, CA
I love to design, build and create
my story
Art, creation, and building have always been a focus in my life. At a young age, I quickly discovered my love for design. I was fascinated by figuring out how to take the ideas running through my head and bring them to life using various mediums. Visual communication became my way of storytelling, whether it was my life experiences, my ideas, or the stories I hear.
I grew up in the mountains and lakes of Truckee, California, in a family that prioritized camping trips and exploration. With my upbringing, paired with an innate love for the ocean, and subsequent move to the coast, I find an abundance of inspiration in my environment. My art reflects this connection to nature, including the movement and people woven into it.
Gathering this, I felt driven to start my freelance design business. With my roots in storytelling and inspirations drawn from nature, people, and movement, my deep-seated love for the creative process flourishes as I help others build their brands.
My business is founded upon this joy- the joy of hearing people's ideas and helping turn them into visually compelling designs that showcase their stories.
Cheers,
Teliz
