Hi there! I'm Julie Centeno, an illustration-focused professional based in San Diego with a passion for design and illustration. I have experience with portraiture practically all my life, it's one of my highest earners with clients. I enjoy helping customers find the right fit, delivering friendly service, a bit of a people pleaser I may say but at the end of every project I like to be proud of my work and contributing to cohesive teamwork with all my clients. I am a quick learner, able to multitask in fast-paced environments, and I’m always eager to take on new projects and grow my skills. I can easily combine creativity with practical problem-solving. I'm bilingual in Spanish and English, comfortable with Adobe Creative Cloud apps like Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and Procreate. Although, I have a very basic understanding of graphic design from my studies and more of hands-on work gal from my fine art days.
