Thomas Averin

Portland, OR, USA
I am an art director & designer living in Portland, Oregon.

I graduated from the Pacific Northwest College of Art.

I have worked for a range of individual clients, companies, and studios; both on staff and as a freelancer.

As a creative, I love cleanliness, organization, geometry, and the timeless look of good typography and color usage.

As a human being, I love weird music videos, video games, and cartoons.
