About Me
Hi there! My name is Chelsea. I’m a graphic designer who specializes in print design, with some web and social media thrown in, and photography for fun. I graduated from Friends University in Wichita, Kansas in 2017 from their Graphic Design and Visual Communications programs. Prior to starting my current academic career, I served six years in the US Navy, where I worked as a translator, foreign language and networking analyst, and as project and team lead. After my contract expired, I decided to go for my dreams and return to college to pursue a career that I was enthusiastic about and knew I would love.
Having been in the military, I am passionate about Veterans' affairs, but I also want to have an impact on the community around me as a whole. I also want to help create a society that is environmentally conscious and where human activities have low impacts on the world around us. I believe that we were given the planet to be stewards and caretakers; conservation efforts are something which I follow closely.
Walt Disney once said, "You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality." My hope is that through my design work, I will be able to be that person for other organizations in the matters which they are most dedicated to as well. Let me help you make your dream a reality!
