Hi there,
I’m Laura Dennys Suescun Mendoza a Miami-based creative, designer and art director working across branding, motion, and digital design.

My work lives at the intersection of advertising and visual storytelling, informed by a thoughtful, clear approach to communication. I make things look pretty.

Currently, I’m exploring my personal identity through mixed media art Fayretrade.org.
