about me

I love adventure, psychology, and good design.

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by - I’m Elana Rose Polan, a freelance art director and UI designer with over 10 years of agency experience in projects focused on youth, healthy behavior change, lifestyle brands, and more. I’ve been fortunate enough to collaborate with a range of influential clients who have entrusted me with their most precious asset - their brand!

I believe design rooted in empathy has the power to change the world. Whether it’s inspiring healthy habits, creating experiences that make life easier, or refreshing a brand to authentically reflect its spirit, I love watching the ripple effect of positive changes my designs inspire.

As for me personally, I feel most alive when active, in nature, creating or exploring something new. I’m always learning, growing, and looking for adventure. I’m a dog lover, ENFP, and avid traveler exploring the world in search of creative inspiration to bring energy and life into everything I create.
