My name is Camila Romero, welcome to my corner of the web!
I am a Cuban - American freelance graphic designer, born & raised in Miami, but currently based in NYC. I received my BSC in Creative Advertising & Graphic Design from The University of Miami & have over 5 years of experience in website, editorial, logo & brand design.
Since I could pick up a pencil I have been doodling...On a napkin, a receipt, in one of the hundreds of half-used sketchbooks under my bed...That, and the constant re-runs of Scooby Doo and Tom & Jerry, cultivated my path toward design and illustration.
My goal is to curate a space where my clients & I feel free to collaborate unhinged, in order to create beautiful and eye-catching visuals for whatever the project might be!
