✿ about

✿ Dalia is an LA-based Sr. Art Director, illustrator, and cat-lady whose creativity has been fueled by a lifelong love of everything from animation and tv to fashion and design to gaming and crafting.

She is especially passionate about how important visual storytelling is to elevating a script— with wardrobe and set design being her absolute favorite bits!

As a creative currently working within the Hispanic/Multicultural market, she has been pushed to create work that is meaningful, insightful and authentic, and driven by truths beyond surface-level ideas.

Collaboration and the challenge of solving even puzzle-like briefs have been what has driven her love of storytelling through advertising.
