I’m Regina Acra, a graphic designer from the Dominican Republic currently based in Washington DC. My approach blends intuition and strategy to create work that connects through storytelling.

I believe that curiosity drives my practice, merging emotional depth with a systematic approach. My expertise spans brand identities, publications, and various print and digital mediums.

I hold a Master of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from Boston University.
