Brand Director and e-commerce brand designer growing DTC brands with data-driven marketing.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multidisciplinary designer with experience spanning e-commerce, branding, and digital strategy. I build brands end-to-end, from concept and positioning to Shopify execution and customer acquisition.
As Brand Director, I launched and managed my own DTC brand, growing to 28.9K+ Instagram followers and achieving a 70% customer retention rate on Shopify. I optimize conversion by improving UX/UI, deploying retargeting with Google Ads and Meta Ads, and strengthening SEO for sustained sales growth.
I also work as a freelance Brand Designer developing brand identities and visual strategies for Shopify-based online stores. My process includes e-commerce-focused packaging design and the practical use of analytics—using Tableau data—to support profitability decisions.
Before focusing on e-commerce brand growth, I gained creative and operational experience in fashion. I supported teams through textile sourcing, runway archive organization, and event coordination—work that sharpened my attention to detail and communication with international stakeholders.
