Graphic Design

Designing and illustrating is a passion of mine and I recently completed over 50 units for a Certificate of Achievement – Advanced in Graphic & Interactive Design from De Anza College. I predominantly use Adobe Creative Suite – Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop. Below are featured designs you can click to learn more about each project. After those you can scroll to see various work from professional, school, and personal projects.
