Keep coming back for more

I've had the pleasure of working with Aleks for almost 10 years, as a colleague at the San Diego Reader and as a contractor for my marketing agency, Left Lane Digital. Aleks is hands down the most skilled and creative graphic designer I've ever worked with. You can give him precise instructions and he'll make your vision come to life just as you hoped, or you can give him free reign to let him lead and you won't be disappointed with what he creates. I have one of my longest client relationships because they love Aleks' design work and keep coming back for more. In addition to being an incredible graphic designer, Aleks is also fun and easy to work with and he feels like a true teammate.

Aleks produces art, graphic designs for my clients aboard Navy Ships. These clients purchase high end consumer products that are decorated with logos. I am amazed sometimes how quickly he can produce just what they are looking for.

Hard working and dependable

Alejandro has worked for me and with me for about 12 years. He is one of the hardest working and dependable employees I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. His communication and reliability have made him my go to person anytime I’ve needed a designer. My only complaint is that the company that I own now does not require a full time designer. He is always a pleasure to work with and I could not recommend him highly enough.
