A few favorites
Hi. I’m Johnny, your Upstate NY graphic designer.
I’ve been drawing things for people since before I could spell “freelance.” These days I work with small businesses, nonprofits, and scrappy little corporations who need real design. Not AI slop or bargain-bin templates.
Based in the great cold expanse of Upstate NY. Available everywhere worldwide.

Real words from real clients
“Johnny nailed our brand in the first round. We’d been trying to explain our vibe to designers for two years. He just got it.”
“Our new logo gets more comments than anything we’ve posted in years. Worth every penny and then some.”
“Fast, friendly, and the work is genuinely fun. Our flyers actually get picked up now instead of ignored. Big upgrade.”
