Bio
Kristina Ray
I have worked directly with Annemarie for the past six years, when she was a key part of our graphic design team at the City of Carlsbad. She is a rare combination of creative skills and business acumen, bringing new ideas, working efficiently and meeting deadlines. She listens, asks good questions and always strikes the right balance of advocating for quality design and working with clients to make sure they feel part of the process. You might not think a city graphic design shop is stressful but let me tell you – Annemarie juggled multiple competing demands and deadlines, sudden changes in direction (including during COVID) on a regular basis and NEVER lost her cool. Like never. I fully plan to find a way to work with Annemarie in the future, and I suggest you do too! Message me for more details – I am happy to tell you more!

I was privileged to work with Anne Marie while at City of Carlsbad. She is a highly skilled designer with excellent attention to detail. She was always willing to tackle any job and was happy to receive and implement design review feedback. She has the right mentality to work in the Graphic Design industry! Whether a creative vision all her own or a collaborative effort, her work is always delivered on time and with polish. I loved having her on my team!
