About

Hello, I'm Hannah, and I'm delighted to connect with you! I am a passionate and dedicated graphic designer based in Windsor, Ontario. Recently, I graduated from St. Clair College with an advanced diploma in Graphic Design, specializing in layout, editorial, information, and social media design. Over the past year, I've had the opportunity to volunteer and collaborate with talented professionals at The Registered Graphic Designers of Canada (RGD), including volunteering at the Design Thinkers Conference in Toronto. Additionally, I gained valuable experience through an internship and a summer contract with Tango Creative Group.

My design philosophy is that good design should go unnoticed and underappreciated. “Good design” isn’t necessarily the shocking million-dollar billboard that wins every award. Good design is the menu at a restaurant that directs the customer precisely to what they need to know or a subway map that helps a tourist who doesn’t speak the language get to their destination without any trouble. Great design brings people together and can start a conversation, even if that conversation is about what to have for dinner.
