Mike Adams

With 8 years of hands-on experience in Graphic Design and 1 year experience in Web design, I have honed my skills in creating visually compelling and user-centric designs that drive brand awareness and engagement. Working within a marketing department, I’ve developed a keen understanding of how to align design strategies with broader marketing goals, ensuring that every project not only looks great but also resonates with the target audience and achieves measurable results.

I am currently based in Chicago and looking for work as a Graphic & Web designer within a marketing team where I know I will make an impact from day one.

My Work

My work reflects the past 8 years within various marketing departments for Saas companies in the Healthcare IT field. I have grown their print and digital collateral libraries as well as their branding from the ground up.
