Eleni Yannakopoulos is an empathetic, dynamic, and multi-disciplinary visual designer working to make the world a more colorful and welcoming place. She is currently pursuing dual Bachelors degrees in Graphic Design and Advertising at the University of Florida and is on track to graduate in December of 2020. (go gators!)
Eleni has been a digital designer and artist for as long as she has owned computers. She received a copy of Photoshop CS2 at eight years old and has been hooked ever since. That childhood wonder and pursuit of knowledge has followed her throughout her entire life. She thrives in creative environments that allow her to constantly grow and evolve.
She loves working with all sorts of design, but she is very interested in UXUI. She grew up on the internet and loves to learn about the impact design has on all of our digital experiences. Outside of digital design, you’ll often find her gaming, dabbling in traditional art, or playing Dungeons & Dragons. Gaming takes up the majority of her time outside of work. Her favorite games are Bloodborne, Divinity: Original Sin 2, Monster Hunter: World, and Overwatch. (psssst… because she knows you’re probably wondering: it’s pronounced uh-LEH-nee YAH-nah-kah-puh-luhs)
Here are some samples of my work:
