About

I’m Victoria Aphrodite Garcia, a graphic designer and illustrator based in the Chicagoland area. I enjoy creating visuals that feel cohesive and intentional—whether that’s promotional poster design that highlights pricing and encourages purchases, or illustrations and graphics built to connect with people on social media.

I’ve gained hands-on experience through roles across retail, design coordination, and non-profit creative work. From organizing product displays to coordinating project timelines and brainstorming design solutions with teams, I bring a detail-focused, collaborative approach. I’m especially motivated by projects where my design skills can support fundraising and community events, while also strengthening brand identity through clear, engaging artwork.
