My name is Paul Micarelli. I am a professional designer & creative director, working in New Jersey, USA. I graduated from Rowan University with a BFA in Graphics Design in 2001. For over 15 years, I worked for a design studio called Gecko Graphics, Inc.

I am a freelance graphic designer & creative director, with many years of experience working on a wide variety of projects for different clients. My passion for creative design drives all my professional endeavors.

My specialties include:

• Logos & Branding

• Expert Photo Retouching

• Promotional Materials

*** ALL FORMS OF PRINT & DIGITAL DESIGN ***

I am also the owner of Fantasy Photos, LLC. This is a business that specializes in custom photo portraits, and also offers a "Fantasy Photo Booth" for live events.

I have worked on licensed properties for well-known global companies such as Marvel, Sony Pictures, Nickelodeon, Classic Media, Cartoon Network, Scholastic, Hershey's, Fox, Disney, & many more.

I specialize in branding and promotional materials for startups & new businesses. My creative expertise has helped launch many successful products and services.

As a senior design student, I created an original strategy game that was eventually published as "Da Vinci's Challenge™". It is a patented & award-winning board game, based on the ancient "Flower of Life" symbol.
