Hello there! I’m Alena, a graphic designer living in the heart of the Rockies with my husband and our border collie. My career experience is in design, illustration, marketing, and branding. My background in apparel and promotional item design, marketing content creation, and rebranding have created a very solid base of skills and knowledge in which I operate from. I’m fueled by my passion for bringing ideas to life for a spectacular outcome. I consider myself a ‘forever student,’ eager to build on my academic foundations in studio art and design and stay in tune with the latest trends and techniques in our field.

My knowledge of trends and designing has contributed to my most recent success at College Hill, where I led the graphic design team as their manager. Managing a team of creatives taught me how to lead while collaborating with everyone’s ideas.

I believe that collaboration and communication in the is the key to prosperity. Similar to when I was playing hockey growing up, it takes everyone doing their part and trust in each other to succeed.

I am currently looking for new remote design opportunities while being based in Basalt, Colorado.
