Hi, I'm Donovan DeLisle, a recent graduate and aspiring brand/graphic designer. I’m passionate about combining strong visual storytelling with practical design strategies to help brands communicate clearly and memorably. My studies in fine arts and hands-on experience in photography and graphic design have given me a solid foundation in composition, color theory, and typography. Beyond design, I bring customer-focused experience from hospitality and recreation roles. As a Dutch Bros barista and as a pool manager, I developed reliable teamwork, strong communication, and the ability to stay calm under pressure—skills I apply daily to meet deadlines and collaborate effectively with clients and teammates.
