Malena is a versatile graphic designer with specific interest in typography, branded experiences, and spatial design.
She is constantly looking to expand her work within the intersection of information design, experiential spaces, and sensory experiencing. Malena's past experience in wayfinding design and social impact community-building demonstrates her commitment to disseminating resources to create an inclusive and accessible world.
Malena is currently in London, UK studying at Central Saint Martins to receive her M.A. in Narrative Environments and Spatial Practices.
She is building upon her undergraduate experience at University of California, Davis, where she received her B.A. in Graphic Design with an emphasis in graphic design and exhibition design. In 2023, she transplanted her personal and professional life halfway across the world to pursue a creative journey in London, a city known for its vibrant arts and culture.
When Malena is not designing, she is...
reading a book (add her on Goodreads!), training for a full marathon (though prefers a scenic half), learning from podcasts like 99% Invisible, Binchtopia, and Best Song Ever by Charli XCX, organising her Spotify playlists for efficient song listening, and filling up her visual collage journals.
