Jared Dorsey

Hi, I’m Jared, and I’m a graphic designer with a passion for visual storytelling. I graduated from Texas State University in 2018 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication Design and have since gained valuable experience working in the book publishing industry.

For the past four years, I have been a designer at Greenleaf Book Group, where I have had the opportunity to design book covers, book interior layouts, and various advertising materials. My role requires a deep understanding of typography, layout design, color theory, and illustration, and I am proud to have successfully executed countless book designs that have resonated with readers.

I believe that design is a powerful tool that can be used to evoke emotions, tell stories, and shape perceptions. I approach every project with a fresh perspective, seeking to understand the client's objectives and target audience before crafting a visual language that resonates with both. Whether it's a book cover or a digital advertisement, I strive to create designs that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional. 

In addition to my experience in the publishing industry, I have also completed several freelance projects, including brand identity design, website design, and marketing collateral design. I enjoy collaborating with clients to bring their vision to life and finding innovative solutions to design challenges. When I'm not designing, I have fun attending live music in Austin, hiking the greenbelt, gaming with friends online, or reading the latest sci-fi novels. I believe that a balanced lifestyle fuels creativity and that the best designs come from a place of inspiration and passion.

Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about me and my work. If you'd like to see more of my portfolio or discuss a potential project, please don't hesitate to reach out.
