Description
Hello! I’m Alex, a 24- year old artist and designer living in sunny Atlanta Georgia. I was born and raised in Cleveland Ohio, where I lived through college- graduating with a BFA in Biomedical Art. Throughout my personal life and education, I have developed a strong passion for ecology and aquatic biology- especially concerning public education and awareness. I am currently exploring new applications for my art and design work in nonprofit and corporate spaces.
I am currently working from home as a graphic design freelancer, so I am excited to seize this opportunity to travel to new places and connect with new folks!

More details about your skills
As a practicing multidisciplinary artist, I can offer assistance on most design-related tasks such as website design, development of branding/marketing materials, social media content design, and digital/traditional painting. I have 7 years of experience working in the Adobe Suite (specifically Photoshop/Illustrator/InDesign), I'm experienced and comfortable working on WordPress and other web-building platforms, as well as Canva, Mailchimp, and Hootsuite for social media management.
I am generally excited for any opportunities to express myself creatively and offer my design assistance to uplift others’ work and passions. Some things I currently lack experience in that I would be excited to practice include photography/ videography (limited knowledge), mural painting, and screen printing.
I have always loved cooking and sharing meals with others, so I would be happy to prepare food anytime. I've kept my own small garden for years now, and would love to expand my knowledge base related to gardening - I am very interested in learning more about preserving/fermenting/canning practices as well.
