Job description

As I usually say, a good graphic designer is able to generate the visual presentation of any goods from corporate websites, to detergent boxes, album covers and dog food cans. I am able to work under extreme time constraints and very defined financial and design limits to produce quality material and also to synthesize feedback from a number of different sources into a distinctive image.

Graphic design isn’t one job, it's 20 !

Stresses & awards

TIME — and the lack of it — is one of the greatest stressors. I enjoy what I do, but often the client deadlines are incredibly tight. Often, I need to work long hours to accomplish a job in time.

Also, having to keep up with software changes and keep learning new software, takes up an incredibly large amount of time, something that most people are unaware of. So when I'm not working, I'm learning.

But I take pride in doing an outstanding job. Many of my clients are repeat clients because they like my work.
