My name is Adrienne Sanchez, and I am an illustrator, sculptor, and graphic designer based out of Rancho Cucamonga, California. I graduated from Cal Poly Pomona’s visual communication design (graphic design) program with an emphasis in illustration, as well as experience in a myriad of other graphic design fields, including logo design and branding, packaging design and merchandise, print and layout design, storyboarding, physical sculpture, and much more. I have been working as a freelance designer since 2020, mostly taking character design/illustrated commission work personal to my clients. I also helped create the branding package for an up-and-coming art collective called Space Critter, and I continue to help host the creation of illustrated zines that raise money for charity (including CareForGaza, Hearts With Hands Disaster Relief, and more). From 2023 to 2024, alongside freelancing, I also worked as a TA at Cal Poly’s ceramics studio. I loved helping my fellow students with their work and getting hands-on with a medium I otherwise didn’t have access to.
