About

I'm Elisa (she/her), a freelance creative and brand designer based in Richmond, VA. I specialize in turning concepts into visual stories and building brand systems that reflect who you are. My focus is on working with your process to create something that feels true to you and ready for growth.

My work has been featured in ELLE and showcased in cities like Los Angeles, Atlanta, Miami, and New York. I’ve had the pleasure of working with brands like Vella Bioscience, Parade, Ourside NYC, CurlMix, and Therapy for Black Girls on everything from websites to brand-building.

I’m open to freelance and consulting opportunities for people, companies, and communities. Feel free to reach out at

2023
Logo
Brand identity
digital marketing
Embracing joyful movement, the collection was thoughtfully crafted for activities like high kicks and high-fives. Notably, this marks Parade's debut in activewear, adding extra excitement. The campaign, centered on user-generated content, fortifies brand-ambassador bonds and showcases the fresh identity. I also designed a suite of digital assets—SMS, email, and ads—to amplify the campaign's reach.

Logo
Brand identity
digital marketing
In honor of Pride Month, Parade proudly embraces an inclusive partnership with trans digital artist ggggrimes. Parade introduced a collection evoking the early 2000s, spotlighting the voices of LGBTQIA+ creatives. I designed an identity that encapsulates the essence of ggggrimes as an artist in collaboration and also created diverse digital marketing assets, including SMS, email, and ads, to amplify its impact.

Logo
Branding
I partnered with Monclair State University to rebrand their Fall 2023 dining hall, creating logos that capture diverse student experiences at each station. Our knife-focused design for the carving station embodies culinary uniqueness and modern aesthetics, reflecting the new brand identity.

Art Direction
Logo
strategy
Ari Fay, an emerging artist and songwriter from Los Angeles, is an ongoing creative collaborator. Our partnership covers the design of their logo, unique wordmark, and iconic symbol, all capturing Ari Fay's musical essence. Additionally, I've developed a comprehensive 360 branding strategy for their highly anticipated debut.

KAIKE

2022
Art Direction
Brand refresh
strategy
KAIKE (pronounced ‘cake’), a visionary plant-based skincare brand, is on a mission to celebrate the innate beauty of our skin. Tasked with a rebranding effort, I embarked on transforming their initial branding to better align with their values. The challenge was to convey the flavored scents that define their product range, as the existing branding fell short in this aspect. Additionally, it was important to bridge the gap by ensuring that the brand resonates with mothers and clearly communicates that their products are not only intended for them, but also safe and suitable for their babies.
