KAREN PANCHO

CREATIVE

Inspired by culture, history, and identity - Pancho's work reflects her appreciation for the world around us.

I’m interested in creating a dynamic harmony - greatly influenced by the past, grounded by the present, but always moving forward.

A multi-disciplinary creative, Pancho's experience is rooted in over a decade within the fashion industry. Ranging from design, production, and retail, she's had the opportunity to wear many hats and cultivate a holistic approach to her creative process. Storytelling is the backbone of her work, defining the intersection between a brand, the product(s) or service(s), and the end-user.

Pancho's mission is to bridge her talents with community. Her collective CREATION X PROGRESS offers freelance branding services that center BIPOC and/or queer entrepreneurs and micro-businesses.
