About

I am Amber Chandler, a freelance graphic designer based in Illinois. I develop brand identity, package design, and marketing. I am the design resource you can count on to help make things happen. From presentations and data visuals to mockups, I can bring your words and visions to life, on time, and on budget. With my perception, I can produce unique solutions to my client's needs with my own personal clean and feminine aesthetic. I am hands-on with my clients in the design process. I want to work on projects that will last and make an impact. My designs are between art and business, let it speak for itself.
