A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Curiosity leads. Creativity follows.

I’m Damaris Rabanales, a marketing student and creative professional with interests in photography, campaigns, and event engagement.

The story behind my work

Creativity has always been a big part of my life. Ever since I was little, I've enjoyed expressing myself through different hobbies, including sewing, crocheting, oil painting, photography, and even organizing. I've always loved being able to create something from scratch and bring my ideas to life.

As I got older, I began exploring different ways to use my creativity, which eventually led me to marketing, graphic design, and photography. I enjoy the entire creative process, from brainstorming and planning to seeing the final result come together. I'm also currently learning more about videography and color grading, which has been a new and exciting challenge for me.

Through my work, I hope to continue developing my skills while creating meaningful content that connects with people and tells a story.

Experience & perspective

As a marketing student at Kennesaw State University, I've had the opportunity to explore my creative interests through different experiences. My work with Mount Paran Church, Seven Springs Church, and the Office of Global Education has allowed me to gain experience in photography, graphic design, social media, and event promotion. Each opportunity has helped me grow creatively and professionally while learning how to connect with different audiences.

A Little More About Me

Outside of school and work, I'm a very family-oriented person. I love spending time with my family, especially cooking and trying new recipes with my mom. I enjoy making healthier meals and experimenting with different foods!

I'm also a big animal lover! I have a parakeet, a Chihuahua, and two pea puffer fish. Growing up, taking care of animals has taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of caring for others.

One of my biggest interests is traveling and experiencing different cultures. I love learning about how people grow up in different parts of the world and seeing life from different perspectives. Through Kennesaw State University, I had the opportunity to study abroad in London, where I also traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland, and Paris, France. I've also visited Puerto Rico to serve at a church camp. Guatemala holds a special place in my heart because it's where my family is from. Although I was born in the United States, I've had the opportunity to visit my relatives and explore different parts of Guatemala.

I also enjoy fashion, doing my own nails, and staying active through weight training and running 5Ks. I've always been drawn to neutral colors, especially ivory, brown, and white, which you'll probably notice throughout my portfolio!

Let’s create something meaningful.
