About
Hello, my name is Juli and I am a graphic artist. Currently, I am a Graphic Designer/Social Media Specialist at Unity Printing Inc. in Latrobe, PA and doing freelance design work. I recently relocated back to the Greater Pittsburgh area after completing almost 5 years as a Graphic Designer for IKEA West Chester in Cincinnati, OH. My experience with this Global company has allowed me to become an expert in Brand Identity as well as an advanced user of the Adobe Creative Suite and print prepress processes. Additionally, I have moderate experience as a photographer with a few private photo sessions, allowing me to sharpen my photo-editing skills within Photoshop and Lightroom.
Please take a look at some of my professional work samples and freelance projects. Thanks for viewing my portfolio. -
