Available to hire
Hi, I’m Camilla Gude, a senior creative with experience across legal, media, financial services and fintech. I’ve led rebrands and developed national and global campaigns, delivering print, digital and social content that aligns with strategic, brand-driven design. I’ve also built high-impact pitches and, after years exploring AI, I craft visuals with a hint of mischief and a twist that lingers.
I combine hands-on craft with leadership, mentoring teams and guiding projects from concept to delivery. My approach blends traditional design discipline with AI-powered workflows to produce distinctive work that resonates on global stages.
