About

I’m Cristina Vilela, a graphic designer and creative director focused on brand systems, packaging, and multi-channel digital campaigns. I enjoy taking ideas from concept to market—building cohesive visual identities, designing marketing assets that perform, and shaping the overall look and feel of brands across every touchpoint.

From leading social media and eCommerce creative to producing email campaigns, print collateral, and promotional materials, I aim to make every design both visually compelling and on-brand. I’ve also founded and launched a consumer packaged goods brand, and I’m passionate about clear typography, accessible design practices, and strong storytelling through visuals.
