Hi! I’m Zeina.
It’s so nice to meet you.
I’m an artist and designer with a background in branding, design, and strategy. I graduated from Parsons School of Design, New York with a BBA in Strategic Design and Management and have since built my experience as a graphic designer and brand strategist in both agency and freelance roles. I’m the founder of Figgy Creative, a design studio that provides graphic design and branding services for clients in food & beverage, hospitality, and lifestyle.
Want to work together? I’d love to hear from you!

A little more about me…
I grew up playing tennis and have since dabbled in just about every other sport: I’ve discovered that exercise allows me to learn about and challenge myself in new and exciting ways.
I also love cooking, baking, and tablescaping. I’m drawn to the kitchen by its potential for creativity and experimentation, and bonding over a meal is–to me–one of the best feelings in the world.
My family followed my father around whenever his job took him some place new. From Dubai and Bahrain to Algeria and Tanzania (featuring a couple of brief stints in London), I’ve learned that the word “home” can really mean anything you want it to. Moving schools every few years was far from easy, but looking back, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Moving around as much as we did exposed me to new people, cultures, food, and languages. It’s not hard to understand why exploration and learning are still so important to me in adulthood.
My creative interests
Photography
I’ve had an interest in photography since I was young. As I got older, I stumbled across film photography and discovered a new passion for this artform.
Art
My background in fine art started very early on as I followed in my mother’s artistic footsteps. This is ultimately what inspired my graphic design career.
