About Me

Hello! I'm Gisella Gordon, a third-year graphic design student at Drexel University. I'm deeply passionate about creating visually compelling designs that tell stories and captivate audiences. My journey started with a love for fine art and over the years I've refined my skills in tools such as the Adobe Creative Suite and in UI/UX design, blending my painting background with digital storytelling. As a designer, having a clear "why" behind my work is crucial. I thrive on transforming ideas into engaging visuals through branding, book design, web design, and painting. My design philosophy is rooted in the belief that intentionality is key at every stage of the process. When I'm not designing, you'll often find me exploring art galleries, discovering new artists, and checking out local exhibits around Philadelphia. Immersing myself in others' creativity continually inspires me and keeps my own designs fresh and innovative.
