A few words...
My name is Liesel.
I was born and raised in Sebring, FL -- which is known by its inhabitants as a retirement mecca for the elderly. It's not the most exciting place in the world, but I still appreciate it for what it is.
In 2004 I completed a bachelor's degree at Florida Southern College in Lakeland, where I discovered a passion for the field of graphic design.
During the past 6 years...
I have been working as a freelance graphic designer in Gainesville, FL -- where I have gained experience at communicating effectively with a wide variety of clients, dealing with difficult design challenges in an effective manner, while staying organized and efficient.
I have designed for a wide variety of media, including everything from magazines to U.S. Marine Corps helicopter nose art.
In my spare time I love to read, sew, and play coed softball.
Other endeavors:
I love to design t-shirts.
There's something very satisfying about being able to wear one of your own creations (or dressing your kids in them)! I very much enjoy sewing and have begun designing a line of appliqué shirts for children. I plan on debuting some of my designs on Etsy.com in the coming months, so check back soon!
Postcard Partner and Gage Press are two companies that I've worked for in the past. I designed most of the templates available on Gage Press, so if you're looking for some quick postcards that's an excellent place to start. Of course, I'm available for any custom work you need!
The last link is to my first portfolio website, which I designed in college. It has not been updated in years, but I've kept it alive just for nostalgia.
