I am an independent design professional who works directly with customers and also through agency subcontracting. I have been commissioned to produce corporate identity packages, posters, advertisements, content management systems, web identities, and web interfaces.
I also, co-founded a design community based on the premise of creating opportunity for designers to have their work seen. We built a network of designers that were interested, published a calendar showcasing the artwork of the members in the network, and subsequently launched a design network website built on the BuddyPress framework in 2011.
This site hosts a design competition each quarter, whereby the top 25 voted design entries are showcased in a magazine we publish. The site now has around 500 dedicated members.
