Leslie McMullin
Freelance Graphic Designer
Los Angeles, CA, USAHi, I’m Leslie. Outside of work you can catch me checking out a place I’ve never been before, watching too much TV, or working on my fashion/music blog. How do I stay on top of all of this AND work? Organization. I love sticking to a plan, but I also love occasionally going with the flow. I am very adaptable and can wear many hats.
