CREATIVE PORTFOLIO OF KATRINA CRUZ

WORK EXPERIENCE PROFICIENCY CV Hi! I m a 28 year old Creative Director & Freelance Graphic and Web Designer from Norfolk, VA. Although I am currently seeking my bachelor s degree in Graphic Design (attending part-time at Old Dominion University), I have over 10 years of experience with Graphic and Web design. My passion for graphic design branched from a long time fondness for the internet; dabbling in HTML and CSS coding since dial up was the only way to access it. Designing websites stirred a drive to learn other creative media to include all things Graphic Design from logos to layouts in publications, and even t-shirts and branding concepts.
