Hi! 👋 I'm Alexa Ortiz, graphic designer 🎨 and change maker. 🌱
I am passionate about learning 🧠 and building on my current skills in brand✍️, publicity📲, and publication design. Having a background in fine art classes taken throughout my life, I enjoy drawing and painting 🖌️ traditionally and digitally for projects or in my freetime. Also in my freetime I pursue improving my photography, painting, videography, cooking and baking skills. 📸🖼️🎨🧑🍳🍳🧁
I have a special place in my heart for the California Coast 🌊, more specifically, the Monterey Bay 💖 where I grew up and am currently based. Finding ways I can use my artistic skills to do good is a priority for me.☝️ Being raised in such a beautiful natural place sparked my passion for environmentalism 🪴 and my self-declared life purpose which is to use my creative 🧠 and empathic ❤️🩹 skills to advocate for social and environmental justice. If I’m not inside making art, you can find me outside running 🏃 the Monterey rec trail or paddle boarding 🚣 out on the bay.
