My name is Alain Suel and I’ve been designing for over 19 years, on a wide variety of projects across many platforms/mediums such as print, digital, web and animation.
I specialize in legal design, creating demonstratives and powerpoint presentations to help simplify complex litigation issues.
I was the graphic designer for the University of Colorado's CU Buffs for the 5 years, producing all of their digital and printed advertisements/promotions for their football, basketball, soccer and volleyball teams. This included T-Shirts, Signage, Posters and much more. In addition to the freelance work I’ve done, I’ve also worked at several Advertising Agencies where I learned the ebb and flow of handling multiple clients and projects.
I am self-motivated, enjoy challenges which allow me to learn and grow while using new techniques.
