Specialties

I understand how learning web design can be extremely overwhelming and difficult. It is my goal to help you overcome similar obstacles as you learn. I offer training in the following areas: transitioning from print design to web design, making HTML & CSS simple to understand, web design best practices. creating custom WordPress themes, creating design comps in Adobe Photoshop, search engine optimization /​SEO, online marketing, website design review and critique, and learning Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Dreamweaver).

History

Established in 2013.

When I started my career in graphic design, I primarily designed for print. My web experience consisted of creating code-​heavy Flash and table-​based websites. Later on when I worked for an advertising agency, my interest in web design grew, and I began to read web design books and blogs as much as I could. I remember during one creative meeting I suggested an idea for a website design. Unfortunately, because I was a print designer and not a web designer, my idea went to the place all unwanted ideas go to die.

It was from that day on, I made it a personal goal to be more than just a print designer. I read everything I could, and practiced building small personal websites and eventually built sites as a freelancer. With this experience, I was then ready to position myself for new job opportunities as a web designer.

I have been working professionally as a graphic designer since 2004. I graduated with a B.S. in Visual Design and Web Media from Ferris State University.
