About Me

I'm Layla.
Graphic designer based in the Hudson Valley. Although design is my main focus I have experience in a variety of creative fields. I've enjoyed learning about digital illustration, photography, and various printing methods. Traditional media such as oil paints and pen and ink work are passions of mine. My other hobbies include gardening, hiking, and science topics. I like to challenge myself to learn new things often and never stop exploring. Thank you for visiting my website, I hope to hear from you!
