Hello, I am Alicia!
I am a graphic designer who was born and raised in Arizona and currently reside here as well. I started out learning photography and had some fun with that before transitioning into Desktop Publishing.
Starting my design career at Scottsdale Community College and then transferring to Arizona State University Polytechnic School, I strive to do my best. I believe that a good sense of communication is critical for not just designing but life in general. I remind myself to keep an open mind on things like projects and try something new with a curious mind.
When I’m not designing, I love sitting back with a good story in the form of a book or as something to watch. I also keep up my creativity by dyeing my hair with fun colors. It adds some fun & happiness to my days! Additionally, I enjoy music, and when I’m not designing, I love sitting back with a good story in the form of a book or as something to watch. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family when it is safe to do so.
