Margo Tran - About

Graphic Designer

Illustrator

Hello, I'm Margo

I am in love with clean, sophisticated and playful design pieces. My fine arts background and an eye for detail help me create artistic and aesthetically pleasing artwork. I’m versatile and have the skill set to design anything either for print or digital, but I’m focusing on brand identity design, packaging design, UX/UI and illustration.

In my spare time, I either chill in the balcony, cook new recipes, watch thriller, rom-com shows on Netflix, or taking photos. I’ve been doing film photography for 4 years and I have my own amateur dark room to develop and scan films.
