about me

i'm Rachael Baqué, a graphic, web and UI designer based in the heart of Chicago. I started building websites back when you had to do everything by hand and have been baked into the adobe ecosystem since 2009.

I started out in the beauty industry, which is where I fell in love with brand storytelling. These days I'm mostly in the tech space, but the core of what I do hasn't changed: creating work that connects. I have honed a wide range of skills, from graphic, web and UI design, to digital marketing and social-first strategy. I can always find the sweet spot between something looking great and preforming just as well.

When I'm not behind a computer screen, I'm usually hiking in the Gorge or experimenting with film photography.
