Available to hire
Hi, I’m David Jones, a seasoned creative professional with a lifetime of experience in graphic design, photography, and marketing. Over the years, I’ve led creative teams, managed advertising design companies, and supported major clients like NAPA with marketing materials and trade shows. I love combining technical skills with creative vision to produce impactful and engaging visual content.
With a strong background in Adobe Creative Cloud and in-house photography studios, I’ve helped many projects come to life from concept to production. Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering and giving back to the community, especially through Challenged Sports Exchange. I’m always eager to take on new challenges and bring fresh ideas to every project I undertake.
