Okay, let’s tackle this. So Andrea has a broad range of skills, but she’s not a senior-level designer or an art director. She’s more of a mid-level designer with a focus on packaging and advertising. Location is Washington, D.C., which is a competitive market. According to Glassdoor, the average hourly rate for a graphic designer in D.C. is around $45–$75. Considering her skills and experience, I’d estimate her rate to be on the lower end of that range, around $75 per hour.
