About Me.
Hello! My name is Isabelle Rose Foote. I am a newly graduated graphic designer looking to apply my creative skills in a professional setting. I currently live in Bay City, Michigan, but may plan to relocate. A graphic design generalist is what I would consider myself, my strongest areas of expertise being logo and branding, illustration, packaging, advertising, and animation/motion graphics. Being open to new experiences, learning things quickly, and multitasking are also some of my biggest strengths. I have designed for companies and individuals working in several industries, including the restaurant, craft beer, and cannabis industries, among others.
When I design, I tend to look at my projects from an analytical perspective, focusing mostly on the big picture of what the project was created to be, while also considering smaller details. My love for aesthetics and color tends to show through my projects. I love to have fun while I work and sometimes add a personal flair to the projects at hand.
I am currently looking for professional experience in the graphic design field. If you are interested in hiring or learning more about me, feel free to reach out!
