Who I am.

My name is Tony Ramirez! I am a Junior at Kennesaw State pursuing a bachelor’s degree in graphic communications with a minor in Science in Interactive Design, and a first-generation college student! Below you will learn more on what type of designer I am, and why I design the way I do.

A Pi-Shaped Designer

  • Interface Design

    Designing captivating layouts for digital assets is one area that I excel in. As a designer, I strive to create products that not only meet the criteria of companies, but to create an immersive interface that attracts consumers who will use the product at hand. Anyone can learn to create the product: it’s the creative flair that sets people apart. I use my knowledge of Graphic Design to my advantage when designing interfaces.

  • Graphic Design

    Packages, magazines, posters, business cards, brochures, style guides, logos, you name it. While designing for the present is essential; Designing for the future is crucial. I create captivating assets that stand out, that are emotionally driven, in order for there to be a connection to the product and the consumer.

“A Wearer of Many Caps”

I strive to never stop learning and improving my skills within Adobe and Figma. My goal is to become a well-rounded Product Designer with known skill sets not only in Adobe and Figma, but also in Code, Marketing, and CAD Software. By learning from experienced designers within companies, I aim to increase my knowledge and enhance my ability to collaborate effectively, bringing my unique ideas to life in designs that resonate with consumers across diverse demographics. Which is why I believe I am a pi-shaped designer: a wide skillset with specialization and passion for 2 specific skilllsets.

Personality

My Design personality is a unique blend of creativity, attention to detail, and adaptability, which defines who I am as a designer. These traits are not just fundamental but also pivotal for me to grow both professionally and personally. Creativity fuels my passion for innovative solutions, attention to detail ensures precision in all my work, and adaptability enables me to thrive in an ever-evolving design landscape. These qualities collectively shape my approach to design, guiding me towards meaningful contributions and continuous improvement in my craft.

I prioritize simplicity to create versatile designs that work in both physical and digital mediums. Using clean lines, minimal shapes, and a restrained color palette, my designs seamlessly transition across platforms. This approach ensures adaptability and scalability, maintaining integrity regardless of the context. Whether for print or digital, simplified elements blend aesthetics and functionality, fostering visual coherence and enhancing user engagement. Embracing simplicity and versatility, I aim to deliver timeless, impactful solutions across evolving experiences.

I believe that keeping it simple and straightforward is essential, and by using contemporary elements, we create a design that is modern and effective and speaks to the trends of today. But as trends change, so do I. Modern designs tend to help the transition of physical products to digital products like apps easier.

As an emotion-driven designer, I craft visual experiences that extend beyond aesthetics, aiming to evoke genuine connections and resonate on a profound emotional level. My work is a thoughtful blend of design elements strategically chosen to elicit specific feelings, creating impactful and memorable experiences for the audience.
