Julie Dean
Graphic Designer
My mind spins around like a top and as it spins ideas pop and off I go. I have experience with Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Photography. I have designed book covers, stationery, posters, and illustrations for children's books. My most recent work has been through freelance. I designed an image of 1920's Prince Edward Island beaches. My style can be many different things. I like to listen to my clients and try to deliver the exact images that they need. I am a team player and like to contribute.
