DESIGNER BIO

This portfolio is a showcase of different skills I have adapted over the years of being a graphic designer. The pieces shown in this portfolio were all created using Adobe Suite programs and especially focus on utilizing Photoshop.

The impact of colour combination is shown in this portfolio as I attempt to showcase how the correct usage of colours can bring out the most in even the most basic design. I picked a handful of my designs that I felt all belonged to a collection together and could be easily distinguished as my creation when observed.
