“Working with a portfolio of respected global clients and brands, I help establish, polish or reinvent early stage or mature businesses branding with innovative graphic design specialties. As a digital manipulation artist, I love pushing the boundaries of design that goes hand in hand with your story telling.  I don’t chase trends or follow crowds, and am guided by passion and love for clean, elegant and minimal design.

My calling card is quality insightful design creations that aim for the heart to achieve real results, and memorable imagery for my clients that authentically resonates with their brand and a global audience.

As an artist, I believe emotion sparks inspiration and you, the author, is a key element to ensure the visual representation is true to your story.—Anita C.

When relocating to New England in the Greater Boston Area with my husband, for over 15 years ago (after having worked as a visual design professional in Silicon Valley—California for Fortune 500 companies for over 5 years, where I focused on Web User Interface Design, usability and branding principles,) I formed what is known today as the visual design consulting services business, Race Point. One day, serendipitous, my passion for creating art fatefully intersected with my love for reading.  Each book has its own unique story and I believe the author should be involved in the creative cover design process.”  —Anita C.
