Hello there, I'm Laura
With many years experience as a digital artist, I've been involved with a diverse range of projects. I bring to the table a set of skills that go beyond just graphic design. I create top quality illustrations using 2D and 3D software as well as video and motion graphics. I take pride in my ability to communicate with clients in a clear manner and to effectively conceptualize their ideas into dynamic visual solutions.
During the warmer months...
I really enjoy riding my motorcycle on trails. It allows me to keep active and in shape since my job requires sitting for so long. I also volunteer at my local motorcycle club events and teach new riders how to ride off-road. I feel a great sense of accomplishment sharing my knowledge with others and enjoy watching people succeed at new challenges.
