CHARM SCHOOL
Creative Studio
You have a story to tell. We’re here to bring it to life. From brand-building to creative campaigns, we’re here to help you get clear, intentional, and impossible to ignore.
We’re not an agency.
We’re so much more.
We believe that building community is just as important as doing amazing work. So we do both - by building bold brands, encouraging brave ideas, and throwing a damn good party while we’re at it.
We’re building locally.
We love our community and actively learn from, gather with, and donate to organizations that inspire us.
Good design drives us.
We adore our job - building brands that inspire and delight people is our jam. Just ask us to talk about it, we won’t stop.
We love an underdog.
We’re passionate about supporting minority founders and giving them a leg up. Wanna do the same? Just reach out.
Let’s do-si-do.

Principal, Founder
Cinthya is a curious soul at heart, always drawn to the challenge of creating design that is meaningful and authentic. She searches for the essential roots of each project, believing the design process should be intuitive—when the right inputs come together, they create seamless solutions that feel effortless and natural.
Her multicultural background allows her to create innovative designs that challenge conventional thinking and resonate across diverse audiences. She believes design should be powerful yet approachable, bringing clear ideas to life in ways that are available to all. This philosophy guides her toward the best solution for each unique challenge.
Her work spans the full spectrum of brand development—from initial concept to final pixel—across a variety of industries. She has collaborated with clients including Cotopaxi, Fender, Esquire Mexico & Latinoamerica, Sundance Catalog, Grand and Little America Hotels, Backcountry, Nike, Sonic, Intel, Verizon, 1800 Contacts, DC Shoes, and Crucial Learning.

Principal, Founder
Kate brings the vibes and champions fellow artists, creators, and dreamers.
She’s a seasoned creative leader with a twenty-year track record of turning ambitious ideas into beautifully executed work. From global giants like Sephora, Nike, Google, and Apple to emerging brands like Babe Original and Crucial Learning, Kate makes sure the work works—and that the process feels good, too.
She swears by a mix of intuition, strategy, and a little bit of magic to make brand moments feel intentional, human, and full of spark. She’s especially passionate about collaborating with women-led, BIPOC-owned, and LGBTQIA+ brands that are shaping culture on their own terms.
And she’s a firm believer that kindness is a superpower—both in business and in life.
