Sun in Libra, Moon in Pixels.
Howdy! I am Kayla, and I’m a brand designer based in Berlin. I like to stay open and curious about the world around me. Like a true Libra, I float between different mediums. Whether that medium is design, clothing, or even a simple conversation, I love pulling those different stories, ideas, and feelings and exploring how they might connect. And while I hope to craft beautiful experiences, I strive to create that feeling of delight through collaboration.
