I'm Glenna, a designer and illustrator specializing in character-driven visuals, product design, and creative branding. Over the years, I’ve worked on a wide range of projects including packaging design, merchandise, digital illustrations, and visual concepts for small businesses and creative brands. My experience also includes developing art for conventions, creating market-ready merch, and collaborating with teams on design systems and product concepts. What sets me apart is my ability to blend playful, expressive illustration with clean, strategic design thinking. I’m not just focused on making things look good, I care about how they work, how they feel, and how they connect with your audience. I take the time to understand each client’s story, goals, and vision, then translate that into visuals that are clear, memorable, and uniquely theirs. Whether you need branded artwork, product-ready designs, or visuals that stand out in a crowded market, I bring creativity, consistency, and a collaborative approach to every project.
