GRAPHIC DESIGN
Jorge Valles
My name is Jorge Valles. I am a graphic designer. I like to tell myself that I’m a very creative person, but I would be lying if I said that I’m special or that I have some sort of super special talent. The truth is, I’m still figuring myself out. One of the things I do know is that I’m the kind of person that likes to stop and look at the design aspect of things people often overlook. Ads by the entrance of a grocery store, the packaging of groceries, billboard ads, things of that nature. Bringing Ideas to life is one of the things that continues to inspire me.
