Packaging & Branding Designer | Luxury Brands, Beauty, Fashion

➤ 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗗𝗦 𝗗𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗦𝗘𝗟𝗟 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗗𝗨𝗖𝗧𝗦. 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗬 𝗦𝗘𝗟𝗟 𝗕𝗘𝗟𝗜𝗘𝗙. When your packaging signals quality, scarcity, and story, your product moves from “purchase” to “possession.” It becomes something people desire to hold onto. That’s when customers pay more, share more, and remember you. I design luxury packaging systems for beauty, fashion, and high-end consumer brands that don’t just protect your product, they elevate it into an object of desire. 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗗𝗦 𝗛𝗜𝗥𝗘 𝗠𝗘 You’ve invested heavily in your formula, product, or materials, but your packaging feels generic and fails to communicate the value. You’re preparing for retail (Sephora, Selfridges, Net-a-Porter, Whole Foods, etc.) and know your packaging needs to meet elevated standards. You want unboxing to double as marketing. Packaging that makes customers post, share, and rave. You want consistency across packaging, decks, mailers, and investor collateral. A brand story that feels inevitable. That's exactly what I deliver. 𝗠𝗬 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗔𝗖𝗛 ➤ Story First Packaging is brand storytelling in three dimensions. I translate your identity into tactile cues that make customers feel your value before they’ve even tried the product. ➤ Material Fluency From embossing, foiling, and textured papers to magnetic closures, inserts, and soft-touch finishes. I know how to use materials and finishes to trigger the “luxury reflex.” ➤ Systems Thinking I create modular packaging systems that scale with your product line, save costs in production, and feel cohesive across SKUs. ➤ Detail Obsession Every crease, font, and swatch matters. A 1-millimeter shift can mean the difference between “premium” and “cheap.” 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗚𝗘𝗧 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗠𝗘 • Packaging design that elevates your brand into the luxury tier • Structural solutions (closures, inserts, dielines) engineered for both impact and efficiency • Material and finish recommendations that maximize perceived value without unnecessary spend • Investor- and retailer-ready brand presence: packaging that convinces buyers, stockists, and press your brand belongs on the top shelf • Optional add-ons: unboxing kits, influencer mailers, POP displays, retail guidelines, and collateral to unify your story across every touchpoint 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧𝗦 & 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘 Designed modular packaging systems for Tom Ford Beauty and Estée Lauder, global brands where exclusivity, craftsmanship, and detail were non-negotiable. Created event kits and influencer mailers that turned unboxing into shareable, earned media moments. Partnered with emerging consumer brands to move from “startup look” to “luxury-ready,” helping them secure retail placement and investor confidence. Worked across beauty, fashion, climate-tech consumer goods, and high-end lifestyle products. ➤ 𝘾𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙞𝙧 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙨 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡 “𝙩𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙨 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙫𝙚” 𝙤𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙖𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙫𝙖𝙡𝙪𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮’𝙫𝙚 𝙗𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙩 𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚.

Few can design packaging that feels like luxury, holds up in production, and tells a story investors and customers believe. I combine: Luxury brand experience (Tom Ford Beauty, Estée Lauder) Narrative fluency (translating brand essence into tactile design) Production know-how (working with printers, dielines, and manufacturing teams) So you don't just get a pretty box, you get a packaging system that wins over customers, buyers, and investors. ➤ 𝙄𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙖𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙩 𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙞𝙜𝙣𝙤𝙧𝙚, 𝙡𝙚𝙩’𝙨 𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙠.
