Creative Director + Freelance Designer

Lena Gwen (she/her)

As a Brooklyn-based designer with over eight years of experience, I've cultivated a deep passion for and expertise in Design, Brand Design, Art Direction, Motion-Graphic Design, and Typography. 

I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with a wide array of clients, ranging from creative studios and independent artists, to small business owners, non-profits, and leading names in luxury fashion, entertainment, performing arts, and technology.

My experience designing both independently and within in-house teams has not only enriched me creatively but also allowed me to adapt strategically to meet the demands of any given project or campaign.

When I'm not immersed in digital design projects, I indulge in ceramics, tend to my ever-growing collection of houseplants, and host skill-share workshops on laser engraving, printmaking, and mixed-media digital art and design.

Gwendolyn Elaine LLC

In 2020, I expanded my services to include creative consultancy and template offerings, catering to clients and startups seeking to establish or rejuvenate their brand identities and promotional materials. This venture ultimately led me to establish Gwendolyn Elaine LLC.

Through this platform, I aim to mentor and connect with emerging designers globally, providing them with creative opportunities that nurture their talents and contribute to our collective growth.
