Hi. Welcome to my brain, well sorta. This portfolio will give you an inside glimpse of how I work and think. But before you get to know my work, you need to get to know me.
My name is Anastasia but all my friends call me Ana. I'm a writer, graphic designer, and project manager who wants to learn during every opportunity possible.
​
Here are some things you should probably know about me:
1. I earned a B.A. in Creative Advertising & English.
2. I love to travel (just look to your left... that's me in Paris!)
3. And most importantly, I want to write for a living.
Do I have a favorite project that I've worked on? Yes, of course I do!
As the copywriter on this project, I take pride in every word written from the headers to the manifesto. I hope you love the campaign my team and I came up with for Tinder to help grow brand love and increase app downloads for 18-19 year olds.
