I’m Yanina, originally from Colombia but now calling the United States home for over 14 years. I carry a spirit of freedom and determination, finding my inspiration deeply rooted in my heritage. As a designer and thinker, I mold my ideas into art, using this as a tool to tackle contemporary societal challenges.

Having worked with diverse companies in Latin America and the U.S., I made the decision to move to the DFW area to complete my studies in Graphic Design and pursue an MFA in Visual Communication at the University of Texas at Arlington.

Currently navigating my fourth semester of graduate school, I juggle multiple roles—I teach aspiring designers as a Graduate Teaching Assistant, work as a designer in the Publications sector for a non-profit organization, and participate in exhibitions, showcasing the artistic pieces I create.

I’m passionate about engaging in conversations with individuals eager to bring their ideas to life. Creative interactions and meaningful collaborations fuel my enthusiasm for the work I do.
