Sarah Cortez

Website & Graphic Designer, Lead Assistant (5+ Years)

I have been interested in graphic design since High School. I was able to take some introductory classes and that is when I developed my love for graphic design and knew it was something I wanted to do as a career. I became interested in marketing during college when I was able to learn more about the field.

My all-time favorite program to work in is Adobe Photoshop (which I never thought I’d ever say since it gave me so much trouble when I first started using it) I love how this program allows you to manipulate images as well as graphics. I am also a big fan of Adobe Illustrator for logos, vector icons, and other typography work.

Some of my strong skills are my eye for design, adaptability and patience – all which are needed to work in this industry. I love that KD took me in as a college intern, helping me to develop my skills and see what it was like to work in a “real world” environment. Over the past two years of working here full time I have been able to let my creative juices flow on many different projects, helping me grow as a designer. We have a great team here that I am able to work with and bounce ideas off of. I look forward to what the future holds here at KD!​
