Product Designer
SGT Design
Evansville, IN
Sep 2013 - Present (11 years 3 months)
I work on various projects ranging from a wide variety of clients. My goal is to provide my skills to people and businesses who do not have a design staff or the ability to develop their concepts on their own. I take ideas and develop them into real concepts that function and work for the tasks that they are needed for. Some people have good ideas but they have no idea how to make them work or how they could make them better. I seek to not only provide a way to create their concept but to create something that exceeds the expectations they may have initially had.
