Available to hire
Hi, I’m Paula Deleon. I’m a packaging designer with 9+ years of experience shaping luxury, retail, and consumer goods packaging. I specialize in premium, cost-conscious packaging solutions and translating brand values into elegant, minimal designs that stand out in competitive markets while meeting international production standards.
I’m proficient in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and 3D mockups, with a strong background in dieline creation, material exploration, and finishing techniques such as foil, embossing, spot UV, and textured stocks. I collaborate with marketing teams and suppliers to deliver production-ready packaging and 3D presentations that drive approvals and e-commerce success.
