Available to hire
Hi, I’m Ana Sofia A. Freitas, a Creative Designer blending Fashion and Graphic design with a strong focus on clean, print-ready line work. I spent 16 years at Bershka (Inditex), thriving in fast-paced production while ensuring visual consistency and precise final files. I’m fluent in black-and-white line illustrations suitable for coloring projects and I excel at assembling multi-page documents with a smooth, print-ready flow.
I love delivering thoughtful cover concepts, page-to-page flow, and well-structured interiors in PDF formats. My workflow is methodical and scalable: lock a style, create thumbnails, batch work, and perform final checks to secure on-time delivery of high-quality visuals and print specs.
