Hi there! I’m Karla Martin…

Art Director / Graphic Designer

I currently work in-house as a multimedia graphic designer at the leading marine-industry tech company, Boats Group. In this role, I help generate ideas and artwork for use across many touch-points, including email, social media, mobile apps, web portals, video, exhibitions/events, apparel, print, presentations, etc.

I hold a master’s degree in global strategic communications from Florida International University and an art direction certificate from Miami Ad School. At the University of Florida, I earned a bachelor’s in psychology.

I have one daughter, an array of pets, an insatiable appetite for trend hunting, pop culture, human nature, mother nature, and eccentricities. I enjoy tinkering with Adobe, doodling, colorful sunsets, collecting art, and live music. I also moonlight as a cursive writing advocate, interior designer, yogi, and LEGO builder. 

Who is Karla Martin?

I’m an art director / graphic designer passionate about creating value and positive change for both brands and consumers.

Who does Karla help?

I love connecting people with things that are important to them, things that make them happy, and ways to make the world a better place.  

How does Karla help?

I develop a story from a solid understanding of needs/wants. At the point in the story where brand and consumer meet, I help them fall in love through a beautiful, almost poetic experience and call to action. 

Why work with Karla?

I am versatile in my approach, employing whatever medium or aesthetic is appropriate. I grow relationships through work that is seamlessly artistic and strategic, timeless and trendy, and…whatever the audience wants it to be. I’m also a superb collaborator, working well across any industries and disciplines. 

How can we work together?

Shoot me an email letting me know about you and what your branding and/or communication needs are. From there, we can arrange an exploratory meeting. 

 

…& I encourage you to reach out to me with any questions whatsoever!
