About me
Hello, I am Olena Laukkonen. A graphic designer from Ukraine based in Finland.
I create design that helps businesses grow and communicate clearly.
I grew up in Ukraine and have Finnish roots, which influenced my decision to build a new life here after the war began. Before moving into design, I worked as an energy engineer.
In 2022, I completed my Graphic Design Diploma (IT STEP Academy) and I am currently continuing my studies at Omnia Vocational School in Finnish. I enjoy combining creativity with structure and creating visuals that are both clear and visually strong.
My work includes brand identity, print and editorial design, packaging concepts, social media visuals and web design. I focus on creating thoughtful and effective design solutions. I believe good design brings clarity, joy and connection.
I am currently looking for an opportunity to grow as a designer in Finland.
My Skills
I believe in the fact that learning never stops and I am interested in learning new technologies and programming languages that will help me design and develop a better output in less time.
