My name is Cori Merkel and I am a graphic designer from St. Louis, Missouri. I have always loved art and “thinking outside of the box” even at a very young age. I went to Webster University and that is when I decided that graphic design was a perfect fit for me.
In college, I enjoyed learning to take my artwork to a whole new level by bringing it to the computer. I also learned that being a designer not only detailed knowing the software but finding ways to “think” as a designer. My last two years of college I transferred to the University of North Florida and graduated with a BFA with an emphasis in Graphic design.
I have been a designer now for 20 years. To me, being a designer means never creating the same look twice. You always get to create original pieces of artwork that fits individuals or companies needs and wants, plus something special and unique. I feel very fortunate to have found a career that I love.
