    Vania Cecilia Portilla

    FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR

    Hi, I’m Vania! I’m the founder and creative lead for VCREATIVE Miami. From dancing throughout my school days to getting my Bachelor's Degree in Dramatic Arts from University of Southern California, I’ve loved expressing myself through creation since my early, early days. Growing up in the rise of the internet has been a huge motivator to build, create and design without limits. I’m passionate about helping others share their story through business and I look forward to making a positive impact in my community!

    SOCIAL COORDINATOR & DESIGNER

    Hi, I'm Caro! Graphic designer and social coordinator at VCM, I'm here to bring your ideas to life through design and helping you with your online communities. I'm from Argentina—so creativity flows best with my mate close by.

    I’m all about creating visuals that speak to who you are and spark real connection.

  • Isabel Marquez

    CREATIVE ACCOUNT MANAGER

    Hi, I’m Isa! I studied at the University of Miami and double majored in Painting and Creative Advertising. I blend artistic intuition with sharp strategy to make sure creative ideas don’t just look good—they work. I’m also an aerial dancer, which means I’m no stranger to hanging upside down to see things from a different angle. I thrive on clear communication, attention to detail, and checking things off my to-do list (little things bring me more joy!). I'm your go-to for the little nuances that keep your account running smoothly and your creative vision on track.

ORIGIN STORY

What began as one creative’s passion for the arts & storytelling has grown into a self-built, women-owned agency—rooted in intention, visual excellence, and a relentless drive to create meaningful, results-driven work.
