My objective is to obtain a strong, forward thinking, progressive job where I can fully utilize my knowledge and experience as an artist and a designer. Over the past 2 years I have done some major jobs for well known clients in the entertainment and art industries. My strengths consist of my vast knowledge in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, hand draw elements and a slew of other design software (in resume). I also have a good eye for fashion and logo/branding design. I'm seeking a opportunity to use my edge to create wonderful work for the clientele I hope to obtain here.
