ILLUSTRATION + MOTION
I'm Laetitia (leh-tee-syah), a proud Haitian Visual Designer based in New York.
I'm a multi-disciplinary designer raised in Port-au-prince, Haiti. My love for design sparked from illustrating graphic novels in primary school. And this eventually led me to the Art Institute of Chicago where I continued to refine my skills, and earned my BFA in Visual Communication Design.
From there I've worked with clients such as: The Field Museum of Natural History, Google, Meta, Barneys New York, Grubhub, Nike and Huggies.

Aside from the day-to-day, I'm inspired by people working towards good causes, and untold narratives. It's my mission to help young Black creatives navigate through the world of design by sharing my own experiences and journey.
In my efforts to work towards this, I've been lucky to collaborate with incredible organizations such as Working Not Working, Mass Appeal, and Where Are The Black Designers to create work that builds a brighter future for designers from underrepresented communities.

Currently: I'm freelancing with a few clients and working on my portfolio. Shoot me an email!
