Bio

Currently pursuing a major in Design and Visual Communications as well as in painting and drawing, and minoring in art history, Bianca is a determined and passionate designer and visual artist. As a creative mind, designer and visual artist, she works diligently to become a jack of all trades in the design and art field; to be able to translate skills and conceptual thought processes in between mediums. Her obsession with design begins with the process, the ability to start with a concept and work her way into a whole entire well-developed piece of work. Her design process is fueled by a need to delve into research, and then to work with her hands, producing the brand identities, posters, and other graphic works shown in her portfolio. She enjoys working on everything from poster designs, product development, branding, illustration, to industrial design product development and design research. When she isn’t knee deep in the creative process, Bianca works as an advocate for sexual assault survivors, and fuses her passion for helping others with her creative assets.
