Emily Z.

Graphic Designer, Art Director

Creative and detail-oriented graphic designer with 15+ years of experience across agency, in-house, and freelance roles in the U.S. and Europe. A graduate of Pratt Institute and a Native New Yorker, I bring a strong design foundation complemented by a background in hospitality that shaped my approach to work—grounded in empathy, kind optimism, integrity, curiosity, and a strong work ethic. What people say about me... "Emily has a talent for directing the client through the creative process and providing educated solutions to their pain points". "She's one of the most talented, creative, and collaborative designers I've ever had the pleasure to work with". "Emily is hardwired to design and create, and it shows in her work...Her personality can make the most mundane of projects fun". "She has that rare ability to see the big picture while still attending to the details".
