Hi there! My name is Hadley Lovell, I recently graduated from Michigan State University with a degree in Creative Advertising and a strong background in graphic design, branding, and illustration. While I have experience across many areas of design, illustration has always been one of the strongest and most personal parts of my creative identity. I love creating artwork that feels expressive, detailed, and unique, and I am especially drawn to projects that allow me to bring ideas to life through illustration and visual storytelling. Over the years, I have worked as a commissioned artist creating custom artwork and personalized pieces for clients, which has helped me strengthen not only my technical illustration skills, but also my adaptability, communication, and ability to work closely with others to bring their vision to life. My illustration experience ranges from digital artwork and branding elements to more detailed artistic and hand-drawn inspired work. Most recently, I worked as a Graphic Design Intern at Golf Pride, where I created retail graphics, promotional materials, advertisements, and updated web assets while working within established brand systems and fast-paced creative workflows. Alongside my illustration background, this experience strengthened my skills in Adobe Creative Suite, branding, typography, layout design, and creative strategy.What makes me stand out is my ability to combine artistic creativity with strong design thinking. I am someone who is highly creative, eager to learn, and constantly looking to grow by trying new techniques, styles, and creative processes. I bring a collaborative mindset, positive attitude, and strong attention to detail into every project I take on, and I am always excited by opportunities that allow me to create meaningful and visually engaging work.
