Hi! My name is Yuliya Svetlolobova, but for your convenience, you may call me by my artist name, Yuliya Sneg.

I'm a Graphic Designer and Illustrator with over 3 years of professional experience, specializing in packaging design, brand identity, print design, and digital graphics. I manage projects from the initial research phase: analyzing the product, target audience, and competitive landscape, to developing visual concepts, preparing production-ready artwork, and supporting the printing process.

I believe that strong design starts with research. Before beginning a project, I study the brand, its product, audience, competitors, and visual context to create solutions that are not only visually appealing but also help brands communicate effectively with their audience.

My experience includes designing brand identities, packaging, printed materials, banners, social media graphics, product listings, and other marketing assets. I also create brand guidelines, adapt designs across various media, and help maintain a consistent visual identity across all brand touchpoints.

I'm experienced in prepress preparation and print production, including preparing production-ready files, communicating with print vendors, reviewing color proofs, selecting materials, and supporting projects throughout the printing process. Whenever needed, I work directly with printing houses to ensure the highest possible quality of the final product.

I enjoy taking ownership of projects, developing creative concepts, presenting and justifying design decisions, and finding the right balance between business objectives, client expectations, and strong visual communication.

I'm particularly interested in projects involving branding, packaging design, visual communication, commercial illustration, and apparel graphics.
