Meet the girl behind Mocasa.
Hey, I’m Gina! Nice to meet you!
A little about me:
I was born in Youngstown and raised in Northeast Ohio area my entire life. I have been doing art since, well, forever! It’s really hard to pinpoint when I became obsessed with art, because it feels like it happened as soon as I could pick up a pencil. I continued making art through elementary school, through high school, and into college where I got a Fine and Performing Arts Degree (in Graphic + Interactive Design) from Youngstown State University. And I’m lucky enough to do it for a living, so I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon!
Mission Statement
My mission is to help my clients match their brand and marketing pieces to their ideas and passions. It is my personal mission to be a friendly, supportive and professional go-to for each of my clients in all of their graphic, web, and illustrative needs.
My Vision
My focus is on helping startup entrepreneurs in the Youngstown area, and beyond, to beautify their business’s identity into a fully professional and aesthetically pleasing brand.
Mocasa Values
I place great value on PASSION, for both my field as a graphic designer, but also to understand my clients’ passions for their field.
As a designer, it is important for me to realize the BALANCE BETWEEN FUNCTION AND AESTHETICS, to ensure that not only does it look great, but works great, too.
Having been in the field for 10 years, I’ve learned that OPEN-MINDEDNESS is essential to understanding a client’s wants and needs. This ability to communicate freely allows me to form a great relationship with my clients.
