About me

I am a very creative Senior Freelance Graphic Designer with many years of experience (including Pre-Press). I am based in California but I also have worked with companies in USA and around the world such as Canada, France, Italy and Sweden.

My work experience includes working with the main graphic software applications, commercial printing, Pre-Press, and keeping with the new trends.

I started working for a "trade print shop" where I was a "One-Person Department" fixing almost 90% of different types of files provided by the customer to meet press specifications, and also outputting and stripping negatives to make plates for different types of presses. This experience guarantees the design will be press-ready, minimizing lead time and costs.

I consulted clients on the best practices or methods to achieve the goals of their projects, optimizing time-lines and achieving cost effective solutions from concept to final production. Provided in a timely matter costs, estimates and writing work orders for print production. I increased overall customer satisfaction by constantly communicating with clients regarding everything from placing an order to graphic design and pre-press questions.

My education and experience are assets that allow me to work closely with my clients to solve their graphic needs whilst thinking technically how the job is going to be produced. I offer excellent work, on time, and with a positive attitude. I am always available during the project and I respond to calls and messages quickly. My clients are very happy with my services, my creativity and the professional way in which I conduct business. I am proud to have a reputation of being reliable and consistent.

All my projects show my expertise on main graphic software and my very active creativity imagination, as well as my ability to respect and understand brand's guidelines. I am proud to have a reputation of being reliable and consistent.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I'm looking forward to discuss with you how I can help meet your professional graphic needs.

Sincerely,

Hans Duenas
