Hi! I’m Ruthie.

I'm a Philadelphia-based graphic designer passionate about brand and marketing design. A lifelong learner, I aspire to create beautiful, functional designs with an evolving skillset and knowledge of design softwares.

My background is rooted in the SaaS world and I've honed my skills as a marketing graphic designer in both domestic and international settings. I’m obsessed with ensuring designs not only look great but are also accessible, effectively serve branding needs and ultimately contribute to marketing results.

I currently work remotely as a member of the Calendly brand and design team.
