Hi, I’m Nhien Nguyen. I’m a San Francisco Bay Area graphic designer and art educator dedicated to visual storytelling, whether I’m designing for businesses or teaching foundational art skills to children.
My creative journey stems from a wide range of interests, including drawing, photography, graphic design, website design, and handicraft. Over the past eight years, I have worked as a freelance and in-house graphic designer, creating business collaterals for local small business owners and dedicating my time to supporting nine faith-based organizations and charities in the U.S. and Vietnam with graphic and web design.
Right after graduating from San Jose State University with a B.A. in Design Studies—where I was honored as a Dean’s Scholar and Magna Cum Laude graduate—I had opportunities to teach arts and crafts to elementary children through various organizations around the South Bay Areas. I independently develop program curricula tailored to my students’ age, unique abilities, and neurodivergent learning styles.
Send me a message at contact@nhiencreative.com if you have any questions or would like to collaborate. You can view more details about my pass work history here. I look forward to working with you!
