Graphic Design

Three years of Graphic Art & Design at Sheridan College and an exciting career as a freelance designer and all I have to show for it are these lousy samples of some of my favourite projects.

This trip down memory lane looks at some non-gratis and corporate festivals and events I’ve had the pleasure of being involved with over the years, as a designer, co-ordinator and sometimes both.

5/5
