Hey, I’m Dayna.
I’m a graphic designer based in Southern New England.
My passion for design started long before I knew it could become a career. Growing up surrounded by creativity, I was inspired by my dad’s love for illustration and my uncle’s career in photography & film making. Being exposed to different forms of visual storytelling from an early age taught me to look at creativity from more than one perspective…and also gave me a curiosity to explore it in my own way.
My passion for graphic design grew once I began studying it at my vocational high school and later translated into my college career at Johnson & Wales University. There, I quickly figured out that my passion was felt for all aspects of design whether it be print, digital, or art direction. Some might call it having too many interests, but I call it being a designer with a little bit of everything up my sleeve.
I specialize in brand identity, digital design, and content creation, with experience spanning everything from web and email design to marketing, social media, print, event design, photography…and some things inbetween
I’m always looking for new ways to create, learn, and expand my skill set. Whether I’m building a brand from the ground up, designing a digital experience, or figuring out how to make an idea stand out, I love turning creative concepts into something people can see, feel, and connect with.
Have a project, question, or just want to say hi? Let’s connect!
When I’m not designing, you can probably find me playing volleyball, adding another plant to my collection, or baking something I definitely didn’t need to make.
I currently play volleyball on four teams, have an ever-growing obsession with exotic plants (my current fixation is the Monstera White Monster), and genuinely believe there’s no such thing as too many hobbies. I just picked up sewing!!
And if you’re wondering about dessert, I hold the secret recipe to my great-grandmother’s sweet potato pie. Dare I say it’s the best pie you’ll ever have.
1 designer endless hobbies.
Designed for humans.
I believe design can do more than look good—it can create connection, make information easier to understand, and help people feel seen.
Whether I’m building a brand, designing a website, creating a campaign, or telling a story through visuals, I care about the human on the other side of the screen. Understanding the people we’re designing for is what makes creative work meaningful, accessible, and most importantly memorable.
