With that being said, I’ve still got lots of room to grow. One thing I’ve noticed since I started working in the graphic design field is the speed at which technology is changing. Its super hard to catch up. While I’ve dabbled in JavaScript, stuck my toe in Flash and waded a bit in other multimedia, I can hardly consider myself an expert. I am a work in progress…and so is my portfolio.

I have come along way since 2009. You should see some of my corny designs back then. Along the way I picked up some tricks and tips of digital design that are bound to be of use to someone. I’ve had the privilege of being able to create logo designs, websites and various print pieces for companies small to large over the past few years. I am now at the point where I am ready to expand what I’m doing and continue to use my leadership qualities and design capabilities with a team or company that is forward thinking and has a positive outlook. Now all we have to do is make sure the pay is right.

The concept was to make a photo collage with related elements into an 8×11 design piece. I chose the theme of Ninjutsu for my love of martial arts. I scanned elements from Japanese history of Ninja and added them to the collage along with an 80′s feel of glowing strokes and blends. This project displayed my ability to utilize advanced Photoshop techniques and to express my creative muse.

The client requested a logo design for a new, start-up consulting company for life coaches. Running with the life coach concept, I designed a silhouette of a runner attached to the Coach Accelerator motif. I chose the appealing color elements of red, black and white to make this logo design stand out and ultimately set The Coach Accelerator apart from competition.

I designed this award design to fit inside of an acrylic block that was handed out to employees to celebrate years of service. I used the image of the hospital building along with the company colors and logo to be consistent with the branding. The design was created to be professional, yet modern.

These cover designs were for proposals for a service award catalogue. Each catalogue was customized to fit the corporate branding and logo requirements for the company to make the design of the catalogue appear “in house”. I used elements taken from each companies website to implement colors and matching images that fit the market demographic and employee make up of each company. I wanted the style of the design to fit the professional, corporate image yet be aesthetically appealing to be able to allow the sales person to catch the attention of the administrator.

The client requested a brand new website to help promote his church planting ministry and resources for potential students. The client didn’t provide anything to start with so I had to develop this website, along with the categories and sections from scratch. I chose appealing stock photography that would fit the look and feel of the visitor and added the slogan “Changing The World One Community At A Time.” to the header. The website also featured a Google calendar, contact form and resource download section.

SAS was one of my first website design projects. The client needed a landing page to help sell his new manual he provided for ACT consulting services. I researched other website landing pages for similar products and created a website from scratch to advertise his services and manual. I incorporated a “rating” and testimonial section that would position his manual and services as a expert in his field. I also designed the logo for the website incorporating the “business handshake” the client requested.
