Hi I'm Jonathan Black (insert firm handshake here)

I'm an aspiring designer looking to make an impression in the advertising world. I recently graduated from Michigan State University with a B.A. in creative advertising.

My strengths include the Adobe Creative Suite, print publication, art direction, web design, saxophone playing, bicycle riding, trip planning and tortilla chips (you love them too)

These and my passion for the industry make up the young professional I am today. Nice to meet you, and looking forward to staying in touch!
