My Design philosophy
Less is always more. Those were the words from some of my art instructors back in my early days as a graphic designer. I studied art and design at Platt College for 1 semester and I completed my education at Coastline Community College in 2002. A year after I graduated, I started doing some freelance for business owners and voluntary work for non-profit organizations. At that time I was also currently working for a reprint company doing layouts for magazines and newspapers. It wasn't something too creative but I learned how the print media business works. I made a lot of mistakes during my training but that helped me to improve more my design skills. In 2007 I was hired by a publishing company where I designed and produced a sports cars magazine for drag racing events. I definitely learned a lot in this business and it's tough to work for a magazine. Deadlines are like mortgage payments. You can't fall behind.
My advice would be "love what you do and do what you love but do it with passion." Whatever it is that you are doing for living, do it right, because this is what you'll do for the rest of your life.
My Specialty
I design from logos to brochures, from posters to ads, any marketing material,
