@mereck
Senior graphic designer blending brand identity, UI/UX, and digital strategy for measurable growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multi-disciplinary Senior Graphic Designer bridging brand identity, UI/UX, and digital strategy, with a track record of measurable business impact. I focus on turning creative decisions into outcomes—engagement, conversion, deliverability, and cost savings.
I’ve increased social media engagement by 500% and achieved 50%+ email open rates through systematic content and optimization. I also saved $300K in development costs by leading cross-platform PWA and mobile app projects from concept to launch.
I bring a community-first mindset too: I built and scaled a 2,000-member community and trained 100+ students in graphic design. From rebranding and website optimization (speed, security, UX, SEO) to UX/UI research, wireframes, and digital + print assets, I help teams ship clearer brands and better experiences.
