Introducing #TeamRaffia: Anna Tes

June 02, 2014

By now you've probably noticed our gorgeous logo and branding art. They were designed by the immensely talented Anna Tes. Read on to learn a little more about Anna and what she's up to in her own words.

I grew up in a small New Jersey suburb. A year after graduating School of Visual Arts, I thought I would move to Brooklyn and kick start my design career there; but in August 2007, I ended up in Los Angeles instead. Only off by about 3,000 miles. Since then, I've worked at various boutique shops learning the ropes in branding, music packaging and movie poster design (the industry term is "key art". Fancy, I know.) I got to work side by side with Matt Taylor of Varnish Studio Inc. Years later, I started working with Kenny Gravillis of Gravillis Inc. The two of them shaped my design and art direction skills with their unique vision and incredible work ethic. I wouldn't be the person I am today, both professionally and in life, without having them as my mentors. 

As of March 2014, I decided to go on my own. I started freelancing and founded a collective with my super talented friends called, Nuclear Family.
