JVZZI
Freelance Graphic Designer + Photographer
Boston, MA, USADesign is everywhere, and in everything. I see design as a connection to the soulful, the peculiar, and the futurist. Working with small businesses and young entrepreneurs, on identity creation and branding, helps to fuel that belief. I believe design is a practice,with little to no rules, which leaves a lots of room for learning and creative expression.
In my 5 years as a multi-disciplined designer, I have had the pleasure of connecting and collaborating with individuals from different industries, backgrounds, and cultures, all seeking innovation, and a unique branding experience. This exposure not only shows in my body of work, but has contributed to the effectiveness of my work. As a collaborator, I take pride most, in my ability to discover others strengths, and pushing them to expound on their potential.
