Zeta Cruz


I am a graphic designer specializing in branding and digital assets. I develop creative strategies and build strong visual identities so they resonate with their audiences.

I come from a multicultural background as a native Chamorro with roots in Guam, raised in the Palmetto State of South Carolina. New York City has been my home since 2019.

I’m currently supporting the Global Art Team at Michael Kors as a Junior Graphic Designer, working across global digital touchpoints including web, email, ads, and social. I’ve also played a key role in supporting the team’s transition from Adobe XD to Figma.

Alongside this, I contribute to UI/UX needs and collaborate closely with senior creatives, marketing, and art direction to build and refine the design system in Figma.
