Who am I?
Hiya I am Sally!
I am a graphic designer from the DMV area. I obtained my Bachelor of Arts in Art and Visual Technology with a major in graphic design and minor in animation at George Mason University in 2022.
I create colorful designs, utilizing my illustration and animation skills as often as possible. I excel in logo/branding design as well as web design. I hope to be able to work in a creative field where I can apply my design skills to create something that will be memorable to those who see it.
