Design Management Graduate — Portland, OR
Since graduating in late 2009 with a bachelors degree in Design Management from the Art Institute of Portland where I also minored in apparel and graphic design, I am successfully working as a freelance graphic designer and marketer for clients. My clients thus far have included, doctors, entrepreneurs, bands and musicians to name a few. I really enjoy working with new clients and love the challenge of designing something that will untimely be viewed by perspective customers. The ideal job for me would be to work in the area of art direction for the entertainment sector.
