I have over four years of experience as a freelance graphics designer. I specialize in illustrations and have worked on projects ranging from t-shirt designs, book covers and tattoos to company logos, web and game illustrations. My clients tend to not be graphics designers, as you can imagine. Because of this, one of the toughest parts of my job can be understanding the client's vision. My experience has taught me how to ask the right questions to take what's in your mind and make it a reality. We will work together through the initial information gathering through the fine tuning so that you love the way your project turns out! I am patient, professional, hardworking and I am always excited to start digging into a new project!

I have been working on design projects for nearly a decade now (holy cow) starting in high school. My first and longest running job/project is formatting a weekly 7-page bulletin, so to say that page layout is something I am well versed in is an understatement. I have designed and formatted a handful of books as well as brochures and other print material. I have also designed logos, posters, post cards, billboards, magazine advertisements, stickers, event passes, websites, and re-created portraits to vectors. I have knowledge on creating identities. I do not take criticism personally (I do not understand how people do in this business) and will work until my client is happy with the final product which I know we can achieve together.
