Q&A WITH THE DESIGNER:

Q: What do you like most about your profession?

I love getting to know my clients and helping them bring their visions to life. I ask a lot of questions and try to find out what they like and want to accomplish from a graphic design piece. My work is FUN!

Q: What are 3 attributes you need to be successful in your industry?

Be the duck – if you can’t take constructive criticism about your work, your work will never be great.
Great attention to detail and deadlines. Listen to what your client says and guide them to stay on task to meet deadlines.
Check your ego at the door. Use your expertise to advise your clients, but, ultimately, you have to make THEM happy.

Q: How are you different from others in your profession?

Clients consistently tell me they love my responsiveness and quick turn-around. I have an ability to graphically capture the essence of what clients are trying to communicate. I strive to create their vision, and not my own. Communication is key, and I work diligently with clients to meet deadlines but also get the job done right.
