Graphic Designer

Knoxville, TN, USA
I've always wanted to be involved in something creative. I would never be able to enjoy a job where I could not express creativity. I love to be challenged and bend the rules of design in order to communicate my message. In the words of David Carson, "Do not mistake legibility for communication." I would love to be a part of a graphic design team for a good company with a proud reputation for excellence.
