Hi, I’m Nahela!

I’m a creative communicator, digital strategist, and visual storyteller with a love for authentic branding and meaningful connection. My background is a blend of cultures, I’m from New York, Spain, Italy, and Belgium, and I’ve lived all over the world, which has deeply influenced my work, my style, and my perspective.

With a bachelor’s in Journalism and a master’s in Media and Communication, I began my career working in social services as a Case Manager in the Foster Care and Adoptions sector in New York for six years. That experience taught me the value of empathy, resilience, and the power of human stories, all things I still bring into my creative work today.

My path has since evolved into freelance digital marketing, communications, and content creation. I’ve worked with small businesses and creatives, mainly in the U.S., across industries like beauty, entertainment, hospitality, and merchandise. My work is all about capturing the essence of a brand , from social media management and marketing strategy to photography, web content, and light design work. I cater every project to reflect the client’s voice and aesthetic, with a strong focus on visual storytelling and detail that drives real growth.

I speak English, Spanish, and French fluently, and I’m conversational in Italian and Swedish. Being multilingual, and multicultural allows me to move comfortably through global spaces, which shows up in the way I build campaigns and work with clients from all walks of life. I’m passionate about travel, animals, photography, and exploring new ideas. In fact, one of my favorite personal traditions is spending each birthday in a place I’ve never been before.

During my two years serving in the Peace Corps in Burkina Faso, I rescued a dog who’s been with me ever since, he’s now lived in multiple countries and makes frequent appearances in my travels and photos.

Ultimately, what drives me is creating content that’s beautiful, thoughtful, and real. I believe in the magic of great storytelling and that brands grow best when they’re built on authenticity.
