Students To Watch • Graphic Design USA

Ximena Morazan is a graphic designer, social media manager, and aspiring creative director from Guatemala. From acting to vectorizing, Ximena has always had a passion for the arts and dedicated her life to them. From an early age, she knew she wanted to excel in college outside of her country and be an important name in the industry. Ximena moved straight from Guatemala to Florida to attend Full Sail University for her Bachelor of Science in Digital Arts and Design, where she graduated as Valedictorian and received 2 Course Director Awards. Now she has returned to her alma mater for her Master of Fine Arts in Media Design, where she serves as a graphic design officer of various school clubs. After graduation, Ximena plans to join the Disney College Program and fulfill her lifelong dream of being part of the Disney family.

Who are your biggest creative influences?

Jessica Walsh and Kel Lauren. Their alternative, eclectic style resonates with the type of design I aim for.

What does “good design” mean to you?

Good design not only has to be visually appealing, but it has to deliver its message successfully. Harmony, innovation, and user-friendly designs are my priority as a media designer. Good design doesn’t have to be trendy to deliver; it is all about human connection and emotions..

What trends in graphic design excite you – or concern you – the most?

As an old soul, the comeback of vintage layouts and textures excites me the most. On the contrary, fully AI-created designs concern me. Even though AI is an excellent tool, it worries me that designers might lose their basic skills to it.
