FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Yes, depending on the budget of the client, I have a sliding scale. If a client demands an hourly rate, I charge $35/hour. If the client requires a flat fee, I work within the client's budget, or – in the case of an established publication – I will negotiate their standard rate.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Depending on what I'm hired to do, I first meet with the client, either by phone, online or in-person, to determine their specific needs. I then do a draft to give the client an example of what I plan to do. Once we've agreed on the specifics, I dive in and start the project.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a certificate in graphic design from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), have a minor in fine art from the University of Chicago, and have taken a series of individual drawing/illustration extra-curricular classes since I was fifteen. I have been making art for as long as I can remember, and before that, too.
