About
Janina Rossiter (Nina Rossiter) – Senior Graphic Designer & Environmental Artivist
I am a senior graphic designer and environmental artivist with over 19 years of international experience in London, Hamburg, and Paris. Since 2018, my creative work has focused on ocean conservation and environmental storytelling, blending art and design to make complex issues accessible and emotionally engaging.
I have collaborated with leading organizations in the environmental and ocean sectors, including ChangeNOW, Mercator Ocean International, Pact Media, MarFishEco Fisheries Consultants Ltd, Ocean Culture Life, The Marine Diaries, Blue Ocean Watch, and CCell. My expertise in branding, illustration, and visual communication enables me to craft compelling narratives and cohesive visual identities that align with sustainability goals and inspire action.
Earlier in my career, I worked with global brands such as L’Oréal, Coty, Interparfum, Henkel, Puig, and Lindt, gaining extensive experience in managing creative teams, developing concepts, and delivering high-quality campaigns from concept to execution. I now bring these skills to projects that align with my values, using design to protect the ocean and promote a healthier planet.
