Hi, I’m Ava Lees :)

Welcome to my portfolio! I’m a recent graduate with a passion for finding creative solutions to real-world problems. Below you’ll find examples of my work both in and out of my university experience that highlight my experience in graphic design and brand development.

My work at Mugshot Media

The highlights of my senior capstone. I worked alongside a group of six students to develop a marketing plan for a local business in Columbia, Missouri. As my team’s graphic designer, I designed the individual elements of the campaign, a 62-page book outlining our plan and research, and an hour-long presentation that we all delivered to the company’s CEO and staff.

While studying, I took on freelance jobs to gain as much experience as possible. From designing logos for start-ups to creating programs for a local dance company, this section of my portfolio highlights my range and adaptability when it comes to design.

Classroom Assignments

Some of my best work started in the classroom. At the University of Missouri, I had professors who pushed me to think creatively and take on projects that became key pieces in this portfolio. Here you’ll find my favorite school projects that I feel show what I can do when the rules are loosened and ideas take the lead.
