"It is important to look earlier in life and constantly challenge these belief systems in order to discover something about our life that is of such value that, whether we work, bring home a paycheck, raise children, or follow a traditional, solid middle-class-America way of life or not, life still has value, and we see that we are making a difference in the world and that our life is significant. There is the willingness to share our life with others, to be a source of enthusiasm, and to contribute to the lives of those around us."
– David R Hawkins

Project Scope and Timeline
How long will the project take?
The timeline for each project can vary depending on several factors, including the
capacity of both the designer and the client at the time, as well as the complexity

Design Process

What is your design process?

1. The first phase of my design process is dedicated to research. This involves in-depth analysis of your needs and history to fully understand your objectives. I also study your competitors to identify market trends and opportunities for differentiation. Additionally, I seek design inspiration from various sources to ensure that the creative direction is both innovative and aligned with your vision.

2. Next, I move into the concept development phase. Here, I create

a mood board, initial sketches and type specs to explore visual directions.

3. Final step is taking the discussed directions  into the digital

realm using Adobe Suite.

4. A combination of multiple programs, such as Adobe Illustrator,

Photoshop, and InDesign, are typically necessary.

5. All work is presented in Rounds with a standard of 3 revision

sessions included within the scope.

services within aligning parameters.

Collaboration and Communication
How will we communicate during the project?
We will use Zoom or Google Meet to discuss feedback, deliverables and execution
plans. Comments within a Google Doc will also be used for feedback, notes, links etc. 

Can you collaborate with my team or other vendors?
Yes.

How do you handle feedback and revisions?
Clients are expected to meet the agreed upon window for feedback, and to
give detailed direction about what is or is not working within the presented
concepts. I aim to cultivate an open and honest space for constructive feedback.

Technical and Legal Concerns
What file formats will you deliver?
Final files are released to the client upon the designer receiving  final payment. Files delivered will be working files (.Ai,  .Psd, or. Indd) PNG, JPEG, SVG, .pdf of any documents created. If a client is in need of access to editing a file long termly a Canva file would be used to build and transfer to the client.

Who owns the rights to the completed designs?
As part of this job, the Designer is creating “work product” or “Labor” for the Client.
To avoid confusion, work product is Design or Labor including, but not limited to,
research, sketches/comps, designs, illustrations, photography, editing, painting, transportation, prepping, fabricating and all other design—that is, conceives, creates, designs, develops, invents, works on, or reduces to practice—as part of this project. Exclusive copyright of these materials is reserved by the Designer, upon full payment of all fees and costs. The Designer hereby gives the Client this work product once the Client pays for it in full.

This means the Designer is giving the Client partial rights, titles, and interests in and to the work product (including intellectual property rights), and the Client will be partial sole owner of it. The Client can use the work product however they want or they can decide not to use the work product at all. The Client, for example, can modify, destroy, or sell it, as it sees fit after full payment is made. All rights remain exclusive property of the Designer.

How do you ensure the quality and accuracy of your work?
To ensure that final designs are error free, I will ask the client to do a thorough final review of all material. It is best practice to have fresh eyes on the material from a team member
on both the designer and clients side.
