Available to hire
Hi, I’m John Stefou, a passionate graphic and web designer with over 20 years of experience in creative direction, video editing, and social media marketing. I enjoy crafting compelling brand identities and managing visual content that speaks to audiences effectively. With a background in media arts and communication, I focus on delivering innovative and strategic designs that help companies stand out.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with various advertising companies and NGOs, constantly expanding my skill set in digital arts and social media management. When I’m not designing, I love to share my knowledge by teaching visual and digital arts at IIEK institutions, helping the next generation excel in creative fields.
