"Chris is without question one of the best freelancers I have ever worked with on Upwork. Not only did he "read our minds" and come up with a great design, he did it in less than his projected time, took note of our guidelines carefully, and got nearly everything right on the very first try...” “Super professional and responsive, Chris was a delight to work with. I really needed someone to save my a** on this project for a client of ours, and he was the man!” These testimonials from previous Upwork clients demonstrate that, when you decide to work with me, you can rest easy knowing your project will get done right without the headache. I specialize in creating accessible designs that are easy on the eyes and effectively communicate your messaging to your audience. I can also remediate your existing documents to comply with Section 508 / AODA / WCAG standards. Thinking I might be a good fit for your project? You should reach out to me if: You want results. The purpose of your project is something I’ll take the time to learn about in great detail. A deep understanding the desired impact (and the lessons learned from similar, past efforts) is at the heart of every successful design. Let’s take the time to figure out what that looks like for you. You want to stand out. Branding is key - it’s what separates your work from all of the rest. Why not take it to the next level? My style prioritizes the small details - the little touches that transform good designs into great ones. Whether aesthetic or functional, your audience will appreciate how easy it is to interact and engage with your product. You want to enjoy the process. Creative work produces the best results when the people doing it are having fun. I work to make your experience as fun and seamless as possible so we can concentrate on creating the best possible version of your project and we can have a good time along the way. Let’s talk about what inspires you. Thank you for taking the time to read through my profile. I’m looking forward to connecting with you so we can get started!
