Meet Aaliyah – Our Designer Extraordinaire
At Carats & Candles, we believe every design should illuminate a moment worth remembering. That’s why we’re so thrilled to introduce you to the creative mind behind our bold and beautiful visuals: Aaliyah, our talented designer.
Currently studying Graphic Design and Marketing at Auburn University, Aaliyah brings both artistry and strategy to the table — a mix that makes our products not just stylish, but meaningful.
What She Loves About Design
For Aaliyah, design is more than just aesthetics — it’s about creating connection. “I love being able to tell stories and make people feel,” she shares. That passion for storytelling shows up in her work, where type, color, and layout combine to express emotions that words alone can’t capture.
Why She Loves Carats & Candles
When asked what she loves about being part of the Carats & Candles team, Aaliyah shared, “I love that the designs focus on typography, using type in a fun and unique way to represent different key moments in life!”
And that’s exactly what makes her such a perfect fit for our brand — she understands that the right words, paired with thoughtful design, can transform a simple note into an unforgettable keepsake.
