I am proficient in a variety of tools that help bring my designs to life, including Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe XD, Adobe Rush, and Adobe Photoshop. I also use Canva, Elementor, WordPress, Shopify, Figma, Framer, and Canva Website Builder. My technical skills extend to ChatGPT, Zoom, Zoho, video creation, vacuum forming, 3D printing, CNC machining, fashion design, supplier sourcing, and Worbla plastic creation. Additionally, I have expertise in color theory, typography, visual hierarchy, business roadmap development, product and service development, and eCommerce specialization.

About Me
My name is Natalie, and I live just outside the Seattle area. I'm a creative who enjoys not only listening to but also starring in podcasts. I'm passionate about exploring new possibilities with AI and often volunteer my design skills to friends and organizations I'm involved with. As a fine artist, I love watercolor painting and ceramics, and in my free time, I create short-form YouTube content, garden, sing, and spend time with my three dogs.
