Hello!
I’m Elysha, a visual designer & strategist based in San Francisco.
Currently designing aerospace mission communications at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and graduated with a degree in Design & HCI from Carnegie Mellon. My day job involves working closely with science/eng/technical stakeholders to bring mission concepts to launch, and humanity’s greatest work to the masses.
My design North Stars are clarity and resonance. I see our world’s problems as complex, but solvable—and I believe solutions should not only work, but feel right. I use a systems-oriented, cross-disciplinary toolkit to connect perspectives and align clients, stakeholders, and end users. At my core, I’m driven by curiosity to understand the world, a commitment to excellent craft, and just a sprinkle of optimism for the future. I’m always learning.
Outside of the studio I’m living the granola unc x hot cheeto girl duality. (I like nature side quests and exploring SF hidden gems, all forms of art, climate activism, and the music scene!)
