ABOUT ME
Hello, I'm Cheryl, a Chicago-based, jack-of-all-trades Senior Designer and Art Director with 8+ years of experience in brand and web design, advertising, and marketing. I fell in love with both graphic and web design as a child, spending all my free time teaching myself Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, exploring typography and color theory, and cementing my lifelong calling. I’ve had that passion ever since, balancing my love for design with life as a home improvement enthusiast, avid book reader, photographer, UGC content creator, and proud cat mom to Poppy!
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Advertising from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a postgraduate certificate in Graphic Design from Chicago Portfolio School. I'm currently the Senior Brand Designer of D'Souza D'Signs, a design agency serving 100+ clients globally for 9+ years. I have also recently served as the Lead CRM Designer at Motorola, where I worked heavily on all things digital. I pride myself on my attention to detail and ability to switch from minimalism to maximalism whenever it's needed!
I love to create aesthetically compelling and strategic work to help brands stand out. If you have a project in mind or just want to connect, I'd love to hear about it. Whether it's for a new brand identity, campaign, website, role, or something in between, reach out by email or book a meeting above. I'd love to collaborate and help bring your vision to life!
