Hello! I’m Katya.
I’m a communications and design strategist by day, a freelance illustrator by night, and an all-around snacker.
By the way, I’m a student (again) and working toward an MA in Intercultural and International Communications.
Specializing in strategic communications, and anthropomorphic cartoon illustrations.
Communications and design projects
-
Project management
From landing pages to campaigns, I can lead projects from kick-off to completion. To name a few, I have designed the pages and created original content for UBC Arts Language Hub, Arts and Culture District’s ARTIVISM campaign, and developed an IBPoC internal resource site.

Strategic communications
I produced an award-winning campaign, UBC Library’s Colour Our Collection, and developed a strategy on how to make special collections accessible. More recently, using Asana, I co-created a system that efficiently integrates Asana into our workflows, forecasting, and team resourcing.

Living in scribbles
From Metro Vancouver to the Island, and throughout my travels, I’ve collected memories in my sketchbooks. Some I drew on-location, while others were born in the comfort of home and nostalgia.
What inspires me to sketch? Storefronts, restaurants, people in transit, and other moments I want to remember .
