Hello, my name is Scott McClymonds and I've been pursuing graphic design as a career since 2003. I was born and raised in Lakewood/Long Beach, CA. I graduated in 2003 with an associate of science in graphic design from Brooks College in Long Beach, California. My design career began in the athletic apparel industry, working on custom designs, mock-ups and color separating artwork for silk-screening. I have great time management and project management skills, excellent verbal and written communication skills and a true team player. I have 22 years of experience working with Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe InDesign, logo design, recreating logos, mock ups, schematics, tech packs, catalogs, brochures, banner ads, embroidery, 4 color process and spot color separations, print collateral, sublimation, transfers, photo editing and creating new fonts.Thank you,Scott McClymonds
