hello!

My name is Elena Vaughan, and I’m currently a senior earning my BFA in Graphic Design at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. Growing up in the Santa Cruz Mountains in California, I developed an affinity for nature and the exploration of the unknown. I’ve maintained this devotion through my work as a graphic designer by diving deep into the creative world and gaining a diverse range of experiences in design. From UX/UI & web design to branding & serigraphy projects, I trek through the landscapes of the creative world with passion and commitment. I first fell in love with design in high school, where I was privileged to take classes on the Adobe Suite and its capabilities. From that moment on, an infatuation with careful precision and clarity in aesthetic balance ignited. I’ve pursued a wide range of projects, building brand identity packages, editorial layouts, websites, UX design, and other exhilarating endeavors.
