Hello! 👋😄 I’m Lavinia Winter, a Graphic Designer fueled by coffee, creativity, and an unstoppable love for art, design, and music. In May 2023, I proudly graduated from Front Range Community College with a 3.8 GPA and an Associate of Applied Science in Graphic Design. I’m eager to bring bold creativity, fresh ideas, and innovative design to every project—let’s create something amazing!
My Story
When I say I’m a passionate Graphic Designer, I truly mean it! My design journey started back in high school and continues to this very day. It all started with a class called Graphic Design I. That year, we worked through the entire user manual for Adobe Photoshop CS (yes, CS—Google it! LOL). Digital camera's popularity was on the rise. In my photography class, we had one digital camera to share at first. Most of us were still shooting with SLRs—developing our own rolls of film, and creating photo prints using Enlargers, this was a legit darkroom!
At the end of my junior year, my photography teacher told me about a new Graphic Design program and suggested I take it. The best part? I could continue my photography classes alongside it—using my own photos, editing, and manipulating them. To be honest, high school wasn’t easy for me. My family went through some hardships, and I wasn’t always present. But photography and graphic design were my escape. Those classes gave me joy, purpose, and—without exaggeration—saved my life.
So, when and if you check out my portfolio or consider me for a design position, just know that if you choose to hire me, you’re getting someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes creativity. This isn’t just a job for me. Design is my lifestyle!
