Description: “I don’t know who you are, I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for a favor, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for designers like them. If you let your logo go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will redesign it.” (Quote from Taken, sprinkled with Nina Zivkovic’s wisdom and charm) I didn’t invent Graphic Design, I just make it look really good. I’m a freelance designer based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Aside from being an exceptional songbird, I also have major skills in corporate identity, print design and illustration, which makes me a lethal combination of creative excellence. I’m a little obsessed with branding and identity, and I’m passionate about all things design. I enjoy creating sleek, modern, and innovative concepts, as well as very intricate, detailed designs. I strive to create the most memorable work, and set high standards for both my designs and my self. It’s like being a Superhero and Bad Design is Crime! Anytime I see it I want to save it. I’m an advocate for keeping the streets clean, and the criminal’s off the billboards and magazine ads. But I do like to use special gadget’s, like Sharpie and Adobe, to help me save the day, and always keep my sidekick, MacBook Pro, ready to help. When I’m not my alter-ego, the Graphic Design Superhero, I usually put my glasses back on, write stories, listen to music, sing slightly off-key, and continually become inspired by my ever-changing surroundings. I’m also the newest graphic designer at ocreations. Pittsburgh-based ocreations offers graphic design services for branding, logos, Web design, Web mail, brochures, print, publications and whatever creative design application you can imagine.
