Working with design agencies, partnering with startups, and generally designing unique & challenging digital projects for the past 7 years. See: isaacpvl.com
I've worked in and understand the dynamics of agencies, small studios, the startup scene, and freelancing. I've designed and built a cutting edge, award-winning portfolio website for myself. I understand how to appeal not just to employers and clients, but prospective talent as well. I've extensively studied the work and philosophy of countless other designers and teams.
I have 7 years of experience designing digital products and services, during which I've worked for three acclaimed design agencies, co-founded a startup (creating and launching its product from scratch) and partnered with many others, and moved all over as a freelancer (working on a diverse range of unique web projects). I stay closely involved in the product design process from research to launch, and have lead art direction, information architecture, visual design, and production for numerous projects.
I have a strong background in art/design and several years of experience applying it to web, mobile, and other interactive platforms. I've been responsible for the branding, art direction, and visual design production of many websites and applications that are not only beautiful, but extremely distinct and memorable.
I worked with Isaac on a mobile web application, and he was able to deliver excellent designs based on simple requirements. He worked and responded quickly, and was great to work with.
Isaac donated an unbelievable amount of time to help get FoodCircles off the ground during the fall of '11. Even today, he remains our most active user and promoter. He is a self-taught 'prodigy' with an excellent body of work and an even better sense of goodwill. Can go solo or be part of the team. I would recommend Isaac for any print, web, or mobile design contract or FT position.
