Dustin Maciag

Bay City, MI, USA
I am a young designer whose clean & playful design style is complimented by my meticulous attention to detail & desire to create whenever I can. I love print design (there's just something about tangible pieces that I really love), but I am also formidable in motion graphics. It may not be my favorite thing, but I am also trained in web design if the job calls for it. Anything that I don't know, I am more than willing to learn. I have been creating things all of my life. If I see a new style that I like, I keep trying things out until I figure out how to do it. I can constantly driven & design is my calling. If hired, I will not be able to help doing the very best I can at my job.
