& creative wingman
I’m Alica Pancer — designer and creative wingman with cherry on top.
My work bridges product design and branding. I design products, shape brands, and guide creative processes from idea to execution.
With over 20 years of experience, I’ve worked alongside both established industry leaders and ambitious emerging brands across fashion and lifestyle.
I love working with visionary, hands-on brand owners who see design as a powerful craft and a way to move their business forward.
I’m not just a designer — I’m your wingman.
Here to back your vision, push boundaries, and make sure every detail is picture-perfect.
Together we create, but I add the cherry on top.
