Available to hire
Hello!
I’m currently working on my PhD as a mature student. In a previous life I worked in UX/graphic design and did a lot of branding and manual layouts with hundreds of pages in InDesign. I’m also well versed in Illustrator and Photoshop if any older graphical assets need to be updated into lossless vector formats for all future use.
Have a great one!!
