Hi, I’m Ana Agner 🌟
I’m an award-winning designer with extensive experience across product, brand, digital, and visual design. I focus on simplifying complex systems into clear, accessible experiences.
My work connects product and brand, creating consistency across interfaces, content (yes, plain language please), and visual communication.
AI learner… using more and more AI to support my daily work journey.
Clients & Employers
I’ve been lucky to work with some incredible brands and organizations, including:
Telus, Legal Services Society, EY, The Government of Canada, Teekay, IT Glue, Robeez, InnovateBC, LTSA, Elle, HSBC, Scotiabank, Disney, Citibank, Unilever, and Quartech.
My Journey
I grew up in Curitiba, Brazil, as one of five kids in a lively, creative household. From the moment I could hold a pencil, I was hooked on drawing and dreaming big… especially about living and working in North America.
I studied Industrial Design / Visual Communication at PUC-PR and moved to Canada in 2004. Since then, my career has taken me across Curitiba, São Paulo, Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver.
Career Highlights

2006–2015: Visual, interactive, brand, web & marketing design roles

Beyond Work
When I’m not designing: biking around Stanley Park, practicing yoga, or singing with friends…sometimes off-key, always having fun 🎵
My greatest joy: spending time with my two amazing kids, family & friends… Sharing positivity wherever I go!
