Bringing ideas to life through collaboration, creativity, and thoughtful design

At QALA Creative Design Studio, every project is a reflection of a real conversation, a shared vision, and a whole lot of care. I work closely with clients to create design that feels like them—not just what’s trending. From full brand identities to one-off illustrations, this portfolio is a mix of projects across industries and styles, each rooted in craft and detail.

LET’S WORK TOGETHER

Two white and green corduroy baseball caps; one says "hello! Hormones Speaking" and the other has "ENUF." embroidered on the side.
  • Quinn was so fabulous to work with and her artwork is AMAZING! We were looking for custom wedding invitations that were not corny, but still fun and light and unique to us as a couple. Quinn absolutely nailed it!! We received so many compliments from our friends and family!

  • Quinn was excellent to work with for our custom wedding save-the-dates. She was incredibly professional- she had quick turnaround times and was very communicative. Quinn has such a great creative eye and perfectly executed the custom illustrations and overall design of our save-the-dates. Highly highly recommend!!!

Graphic Design

Bringing a brand to life often happens in the details. I design purposeful, on-brand collateral—from packaging to pitch decks—that reinforces brand values and enhances communication, whether it’s in print, online, or out in the world. I’m fluent in the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD, Dimension), with light experience in animation, motion, and video. I also work across a variety of platforms including Figma, Canva, Mailchimp, Squarespace, PowerPoint, and Keynote—with a growing interest in 3D.

Print & Digital Materials: Design of brochures, menus, packaging, business cards, signage, and other collateral that supports cohesive brand expression.

Presentations & Decks: Creation of polished, visually engaging pitch decks and presentation templates in PowerPoint, Keynote, and Canva.

Social Media & Email Campaigns: Development of graphics, templates, and layouts for social platforms and Mailchimp email marketing.

Digital Tools: Comfortable navigating multi-platform workflows across Adobe Suite Squarespace, Microsoft, Figma, etc. and a growing understanding of incorporating the use of AI in design.

Illustration

With a foundation in fine art and a love for storytelling, illustration is where I get to infuse projects with personality, emotion, and warmth. I work in a hybrid process that combines traditional studio art techniques (drawing, painting) with digital tools like Illustrator, Procreate, and Adobe Fresco. My work brings a human, handcrafted feel to brand and editorial projects, product packaging, and environments.

Editorial & Commercial Illustrations: Hand-drawn and digital illustrations for books, album art, packaging, marketing campaigns, and merchandise.

Event & Environmental Graphics: Custom artwork and visuals for murals, signage, activations, and immersive brand experiences.

Collaborative Projects: Artistic partnerships with brands and individuals to bring expressive, narrative-rich ideas to life.

Hybrid Approach: Skilled in combining analog and digital techniques for unique, layered outcomes.

Collage of vintage-style illustrations including a Camp McCormick sign, retro people, a California map, and various motifs like a motel sign, cactus, cowboy hat, and classic diner imagery.

Branding

I specialize in building thoughtful, cohesive brand worlds that go beyond just a logo. From strategy to execution, I create visual systems that express a brand’s personality across every touchpoint—balancing creative expression with clarity, structure, and long-term usability.

Comprehensive Branding: Development of cohesive brand identities, including mood boards, brand questionaries and market research, logo suites (primary, secondary, wordmarks, icons), color palettes, typography systems, and brand guidelines.

Custom Illustrations: Creation of unique, hand-drawn illustrations and patterns that enhance brand storytelling and differentiation.

Photography Direction: Sourcing, mood boarding, and directing imagery to align with brand aesthetics and messaging with some experience working directly with photographers on still and video shoots.

Digital Presence: Design and development of user-friendly websites, primarily using platforms like Squarespace, to ensure a consistent and engaging online presence.

Collage of seven logos and a product image: Sandy's, Inside, Chase Love Fun, Pozy, a logo with tennis and tomato graphics, Covis with a supplement bottle, and a red abstract logo.
