Katie O'Brien, Graphic Designer

About

I got my start in creative design early on with a love of drawing, painting, and creating. My interest in design and innovation initially drew me into engineering, but I quickly found my passion in Graphic Design that combines my love of fine arts and passion for the design process. I’m proficient in print and web design; working with the Adobe Creative Suite, HTML, CSS, and other web design tools like Squarespace and WordPress.
