Marketing and Graphics Specialist
Fargo, North Dakota Area
I am 23 year old designer currently working in the advertising/marketing industry. I am looking to connect with as many people as possible not only to build a stronger network, but to take advantage of the many possibilities that arise.
I hope to one day open my own advertising company in the Midwest because I think that some of today's advertisers aren't putting their heart into their work. I want to breathe life into the design world and am constantly looking to reach that ambition.
It should be noted that if you are browsing my portfolio or blog above, you will notice it is far from finished. Please check back for more updates because I am ALWAYS adding to both of those sites in one way or another!
Thanks for checking out my LinkedIn!
