HEY THERE!
My name is Grace Smolinski. I'm a graphic designer with a knack for visual storytelling. From packaging and PR mailers to emails and social graphics, I'm passionate about creating designs that resonate with target audiences and build lasting connections between brands and their consumers.
I graduated from Central Michigan University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts, focusing in Graphic Design. During my time there, I developed a fascination with printmaking and ceramics, two process-based art forms that have influenced my approach to design by blending hands-on creativity with digital precision.
In my current role, I work across a range of platforms to engage our target consumer and drive product sales while also telling our brand's story. I've had the opportunity to work on viral campaigns, have my work in Target stores across the country, and help grow our audience. I've also been lucky enough to work closely with our creative director to brainstorm and organize campaign shoots and provide creative direction for product photography, ensuring all visual elements contribute to a cohesive story.
Outside of graphic design you can find me keeping up with the latest beauty and fashion trends, spending time with my two cats, Cash and Louie, curating a massive library of memes, or enjoying a good meal with my friends in the city.
