How do you usually tell others about your service?
Is it the typical "Hi, my name is Sarah Lee, and I’m a freelance graphic designer.
I’ve been working independently for five years, mostly with startups and small businesses.
My focus is on creating logos, brand identities, and marketing materials that help companies look professional. I also occasionally take on projects in web design and social media graphics when clients need extra support.
I believe design is about more than visuals — it’s about communicating a company’s values and personality. I’m always eager to collaborate with new clients and explore creative challenges."
