I have worked as a Graphic Designer in the printing and signage industries for approximately 3 years now. I have a thorough understanding of design principles, as well as prepress requirements and production processes. I have repeatedly delivered quality work to professional clients.
I received a Bachelor of Design degree in 2007, with a major in Character Design (Concept Art) and a minor in Commercial Illustration. I also received some formal Graphic Design and Advertising instruction during my studies.
