About Me

Hi there.

I'm Kira, a visual designer and art director who combines creativity with strategy to elevate brands. My passion for visual storytelling began early, with drawing and painting at six and photography at ten. This creative foundation has guided a diverse career spanning visual and UX/UI design, brand identity, apparel and print design, and paid social advertising. I specialize in crafting digital experiences that are as visually compelling as they are intuitive, helping brands connect with audiences and drive measurable growth.

I’ve worked across industries including Fitness, Technology, Beauty, Nonprofits, B2B, CPG, and Healthcare, with a portfolio featuring UCSD, VitaCup, Sierra Club, and Jazzercise, Inc. My work consistently blends aesthetic impact with strategic results—boosting engagement, sales, and brand presence.

Based in San Diego, I draw inspiration from the California coast and enjoy adventures with my husband and two kids, exploring travel, music, museums, and nature.

I’m always excited to tackle new design and marketing challenges. Let’s connect and create something extraordinary together.

Kira pays close attention to what competitors are doing and always brings inspiration and ideas for our ads to stand apart from the rest. Everything she produces as a PURPOSE: telling a story, maintaining brand integrity, and catching attention. Most notably, her talent for metrics is just as strong as her creative talent, always basing strategy around data to help drive quality content.
