I am a conceptually strong designer and creator who fully embraces the idea that concept is king. I believe that an effective strategy allows for a more efficient execution, and on the road to the completion of that successful project I will ask those important questions that will define the outcome of your end product. The average graphic designer WILL NOT and DOES NOT ask those questions, they will simply design something pretty. It is my experience and professionalism in strategy and design that will set your product/service apart from the rest and ultimately resonate with your audience. If you will take just 1 minute to read some of my client testimonials below, you will see proof of how much value I have added to their project, and I can do the same for you! I am not just a designer, I am here to be YOUR creative partner! As a designer I am very at home in the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop + InDesign + Illustrator), as well as Canva if client needs require it, and can build a contemporary Wix site that is both engaging and optimised for mobile. So whether you're looking to roll out a design project that is digital or print, I am able to do both professionally and to a very high level of design. My career path over the last few years has seen me move from being a multi-award winning art director at Men's Health magazine, to the creative lead of a digital agency, and now one of Upwork's TOP-RATED branding specialists. This work is MY passion. It's what I do, it's what I love, and I am very good at it. I look forward to working with you! And please, if you have any questions about your project - feel free to drop me a message and I promise to get back to you within a few hours. ---------------------------- CLIENT FEEDBACK 📢 ---------------------------- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 STARS) Clint was great. Super creative and great at what he does, but also a great collaborator. Everything was on time, communication was superb, and he was patient as things kept evolving during the project. He helped us with our website, e-book, postcards, business cards, and even content and technical help. Thanks Clint!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 STARS) Clint is a great designer. He worked very closely with us to get great work done. He has great skills and is a great communicator. He also is very creative worker, so feel free to give him "artistic space" to get the work done. We will be working closely with him in the future. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 STARS) Concept creation, understanding of project needs, creativity, budgeting, pretty much everything - awesome work, I'd hire Clint every time he was available! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 STARS) What a joy Clint was to work with. He grasped our concepts with ease and made them come to life beyond our expectation! We are so happy with the outcome and highly recommend Clint. We will definitely use him again in the future. Thanks again Clint! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 STARS) Clint is fantastic, he took such care in figuring out exactly what my brand needed and created an INCREDIBLE logo and brand identity which suites my business perfectly. THANK YOU! I'm so thrilled.
