Good design should be attractive, but also simple and easy to understand. I enjoy creating fun and illustrative designs with easy to understand information. I can design almost any print piece you can think of, and most digital projects too.
The base of my career started in the traditional arts such as drawing, painting, photography, ink, and even some ceramics. These skills shape how I create visual graphics in Adobe Illustrator. My style is creating flat vector graphics with lively colors to compliment my designs.
A good website is necessary for any business. I love to create user-friendly websites that use WordPress. I have decent knowledge in HTML5 & CSS3. Recently I have dived into the world of animation and optimizing them for the web. I can build any simple informative site within a short time.
Through my previous works, I have taught myself the basics of video filming and editing with Adobe Premiere Pro. I have focused mainly on creating and editing videos for social media, as well as short informative animated videos for campaigns with Adobe After Effects.
My career started with the traditional arts. I loved to draw and paint when I was young. I took that passion and received a BFA specialized in graphic design at Central Washington University. I began working at the university’s public affairs office as an intern and then later a student designer. In the last 3 years I have worked in communications at a school district, where I have worked on many different projects and campaigns.
When I am not crafting new designs at work I can be found at home with my cats, or out playing hockey with the team. I enjoy an active and busy lifestyle with the occasional downtime for some online gaming or a craft beer.
