Hello Everyone, My name is Ashanté! I’m a graphic designer and visual artist from Upstate NY, specializing in bold, unconventional apparel and merchandise that turns ideas into wearable statements. My work blends strong typography, expressive color, humor, and cultural storytelling to create designs that feel authentic, eye-catching, and emotionally resonant. I pair creativity with technical precision, delivering print-ready, production-optimized files that translate seamlessly across garments and accessories. I specialize within the Adobe Suite, but am open to using and learning new softwares. I prototype quickly and refine concepts efficiently without sacrificing originality. Self-motivated and collaborative, I thrive in fast-paced, local or remote environments, and consistently create high-impact visuals that help brands stand out and customers feel confident wearing the message. Thank you for taking the time to get to know a bit about me! I look forward to working with you! All my best, -Ashanté
