I am highly knowledgeable about Search Engine Optimization (SEO), setting up online stores with WooCommerce on the WordPress Platform, creating logos, graphics, PowerPoint Presentations, Magazines, and Digital Menu Boards for restaurants. I'm also self taught and can teach HTML/CSS.
My experience in visual design is vast with over 25 years of experience having started in the industry in 1998. I also love sharing my knowledge.

Website Knowledge
I've been designing websites since 1998.
I can hand-code HTML, CSS, and a little JavaScript.
I currently use WordPress and the DIVI 5 theme to create all of my recent sites as it's the fastest to build out my ideas.
I know all about SEO. I've even written a quick tutorial on it:
Illustration
logos
When it comes to logo design, I research information behind the logo. Who is it for? An organization, project, or story? I get all the details and then I conjure up the look and feel and draw out some concept sketches using Adobe Photoshop. After I am happy with the sketches, I flesh out a few ideas in Adobe Illustrator and then choose the one I like best. I use Adobe Illustrator so I can have a nice crisp vector design which I can use in many mediums and sizes.
AI: Artificial Intelligence.
I use it when i work on some graphic design work that requires the use of stock photography and/or lack there of. Sometimes a photo that I want to use to represent an idea is just not readily available or doesn't match a look & feel that is desired. Sometimes the right prompt written for AI to generate creates what i'm looking for. Sometimes I use AI just to add glasses on a character or extend a photo that was cropped too small for the space I needed the image to work in.
