Who Am I?

I am a.

My name is Kavitha Valiyaparampil and I am a design nerd. I can look at fonts all day, dream about Illustrator and for Christmas I want a Pantone book. But don’t let that discourage you, all that means is that I’m passionate about all things graphic design. And it means I am the designer for you.

In 2007, I got my Bachelors in Fine Arts degree from Louisiana Tech University with a concentration in Communication Design.  For the past 8 years,  I have been a Graphic Designer in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area, creating new ideas and evolving as a designer. I have been in all aspects of design, from creating new marketing campaigns to production. With experience from working in agencies, working in pre-press and everything in between, I can not only create a powerful message, but also have the practical know-how of the best implementation methods.
