Hi There! I’m Deb, a St. Louis based Graphic Designer.
I was born and raised in Brazil, but moved to the U.S. for better opportunities. I attended a technical high school in Brazil, which taught me everything about Graphic Arts, from beginning (creation) to end (printing). I would say that that’s how I began my career as a Graphic Designer.
In the U.S. I have earned both my Associate and Bachelor Degrees. I have lived here for 20 years and learning has become part of my life. I learn something new everyday... a word, a skill, a trick. So adapting to new things has become my specialty.
I have been a part of design and development projects for many companies, as well as working on my own as a freelancer. All my designs start with me sketching ideas and concepts, and thinking on how to best solve the presented problem.
Outside of work, I spend my time taking photos, playing volleyball and creating preschool educational activities for my son.
I am always on the look out for new opportunities to grow. I look for things that I can create, share and learn.
