Meet Your Coach — Evgeniya Righini-Brand

I am a graphic designer, visual artist, photographer & educator with 19 years of professional experience, including 5 years or teaching graphic design at university and 9 years of producing classes and teaching online.

Having started my career with a focus on branding, print and web design, over the years my inquisitive nature and passion for experimentation lead me to expand my area of expertise to surface pattern design, abstract visual art and video production — all of which are now essential parts of my creative process.

During the years I spent teaching at university, I’d taught on and lead a range of different modules with the focus on developing students’ conceptual thinking and technicals skills, including typography, layout and creative image-making. I have always loved working with the students individually and in small groups to guide them through their creative process, provide feedback and answer specific technical or conceptual questions — and I’ll be excited to connect with you to share my knowledge and expertise and to inspire and help you succeed in your creative endeavours!
