Hi, I'm Anne.
|
I'm a Seattle-based graphic designer with 20 years of experience turning complex ideas into compelling print and digital design — and a track record of results that go beyond aesthetics.
At Seattle University, my work has contributed to a significant increase in undergraduate applications and earned national recognition from CASE and the Educational Advertising Awards. I specialize in brand systems, editorial design, multi-channel campaigns, and high-impact print. I bring the same strategic thinking to every project, whether it's a 40-page viewbook or a single poster. I'm an expert in Adobe Creative Cloud, with particular depth in InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. I thrive in collaborative environments, communicate clearly across teams and stakeholders, and consistently deliver polished work on tight timelines. I'm currently open to senior design opportunities in the Seattle area and remotely. |
