Who is Kelly Rawson? (the Coles-notes version)
- Born and raised in Calgary, Alberta now residing in Okotoks, Alberta
- I am able to take on clients across Canada
- I have been designing graphics since grade school, but professionally for 10 years
- Before spreading my wings into freelance design, I worked in the print industry for 5 years and then for the head office of a retail pet store as a marketing and graphics coordinator for 4 years — a gamut of experience that has allowed me to wear many hats, and work with brands across a variety of mediums.
Stuff you probably don’t care about:
- I like dogs
- I am passionate about designing graphics for weddings
- If you’re into the whole Myers-Briggs thing, I’m an…. ISFJ
What kind of design work I do:
- Printed materials—you name it, I’ve probably done it.
- Branding—logos, business stationery etc.
- Weddings and Special Events — from invitations to name cards, I can help create stunning graphics and printed materials for your very special day.
What I don’t do:
- marketing— I can design your marketing materials, but I don’t do marketing itself. I can however recommend a very talented marketing professional if interested.
- advertising—See above re: marketing.
- heavy illustration—I say heavy because of course I get into doing light illustration for logos and other design—things like icons, diagrams, etc. What I mean is I don’t want to illustrate the children’s book you’re penning.
