EnglishWhy am I an RGD?
There is opportunity to be both a benefactor and contributor in RGD’s expansive reach. Fantastic support = happy designers = stronger design community = design excellence. RGD is a gift every day.What is my most memorable RGD moment?
Every moment, knowing all interaction could result in creative wonderment and possibility.Why am I a designer?
Because bad design makes me CRAZY (you too?) and, therefore, I am dedicated to design excellence. Designing is more than my profession, it is my lifeblood, my happy place, my challenge and reward, and honestly a mindset I never switch off. It’s a lifelong love affair with colour, shape, texture, space, form, etc. This is the very best time in history to be a graphic designer, living, breathing, designing and growing right now in our digital revolution. The fast pace keeps me sharp and is an exhilarating ride. New design tools and techniques are plentiful, giving me more value to offer a client. I LOVE IT!Why should you hire me?
Value, period. I am a strategic, forward-thinking, graphic design specialist with expertise in the complete creative process from unique design concept to production excellence. ____________________
