Nicole Howard
Senior Graphic Designer
My name is Nicole Howard, and I live in the beautiful Traverse City, MI. I love checking out local craft beer, reading a good book, and even getting a little dirty helping my husband in the garden.
Over the past 10 years, I have gained design experience in many areas including publication design, Variable Data direct mailers, Website Design, Social Media Graphics, Advertising Design, and even creating animated gifs for car wash machines!
