About
My name is Azure Richmond, I am a designer and artist living in Denver, CO. My BA in Design and Technical graphics from the Art Institute of Colorado has provided me with a proficiency in graphic, product, and web design. Over the past two years I have worked as a freelance designer for 5+ companies in 3 states. While I have enjoyed and learned a lot from freelance design work, I am now looking for a full time in-house position where I can build a longterm career and relationship with the right company.
My skill set includes graphic design, logo creation and image branding, packaging design, info-graphics, poster art, illustration, web and HTML, e-commerce, interactive design, product design, 3D modeling, architectural drafting, fabrication, exhibit design, and clothing/footwear design. -
