Tim Smith

First off, I’d like to give you a warm welcome to my new portfolio site. It has been months in the works and I can’t tell you how excited I am to finally show it to you. I hope you like it and I look forward to hearing your reactions and feedback.

Who I Am

For those of you that don’t know me, I’m a graphic designer, blogger and wannabe pixel pusher. I admire designers like Brian Hoff, Adelle Charles and Brandon Turner (offline designer I know). I feel that they’ve helped me grow as a designer and learn about the industry in so many different ways.

I live in Southern California, where it’s sunny 364 days of the year. Although I live in California, my dream location would be Lower Manhattan in New York City. I’m mostly self-taught and I’ve had the privilege of working at places like Fuel Brand Network and Dennison Media Group.

Now, however, I’ve decided that instead of just following big things; I’d create them. One of reasons that this site is a stepping stone for me.

The Purpose of the Site

One of the obvious reasons for this site is to showcase my skills as a designer. I’ll be making graphics and custom page designs. I’m actively looking for client work and other fun projects to get involved in.

Also, I’ve been looking for a place to talk about all the things that interest me: Typography, Logo Design, Illustration, Wordpress Development and the list continues. So, this site is the place where I’ll post my findings about these.

All in all, I’m glad you’re here and thank you for following this new project of mine.
