About Carly Barnes
Hello, I’m Carly, an Art/Creative Director with a sharp eye for design and a strategic mind for marketing. With over 10 years of experience blending fine arts, strategy design, brand storytelling, and digital design, I specialize in building bold, meaningful visuals that connect with audiences and enhance brands and products. I’ve designed for campaigns across entertainment, SaaS, and consumer brands, delivering work for GridRival, The Roku Channel, Rosco Labs, Crackle TV, Whole Foods, McDonald\'s, and more. With a B.S. in Graphic Design from Southern Connecticut State University, my background laid the foundation for a diverse creative career, spanning UX prototyping, motion design, brand development, and performance-driven campaigns. Whether art-directing a social campaign, building UI in Figma, or developing a motion spot, I offer a multidisciplinary approach grounded in strong design principles I bring a user-first approach grounded in design thinking, audience insight, and collaboration. I’m certified in Inbound Marketing and UX Design (Figma), and love the intersection of storytelling, research, and data. I thrive in fast-paced environments where great ideas move quickly, and I’m always pushing to learn new tools, trends, and technologies. Thank you for your time and take care, Carly
