WHY SHOULD YOU HIRE ME?
With 8+ years experience working as a qualified graphic and web designer, I have worked with a variety of companies
locally and internationally, designing and producing quality print and digital design solutions. Offering unique solutions
for each client is a major strength, with effective visual design driving brand recognition and customer response.
As a creative thinker, I work efficiently and effectively whilst exploring options within the task at hand. Great communication
and teamwork are skills you can check off on the list and when it comes to tight deadlines or a stressful situation, there’s
nothing a good smile and a coffee in hand can’t solve! I’m willing to go the extra mile to get a job done and being a little
bit of a perfectionist, I ensure that all the work I produce is top quality.

whitepaper that is visually very strong. He has also made any revisions we wanted
without questions. I can recommend and we will use him again.”

“Words cannot express how i-tech and Ikram on so many levels far exceeded our every
expectation. They designed a brochure for supplement sales for us. We had the text, but
too much for the space we had, we also kept making changes over and over which was
my bad as I kept seeing things we needed to add.

Supplements., Century 21
Ikram was so patient with me and never made me feel bad for the crazy changes his goal
was to make sure it was perfect and we were happy. Design; Amazing, not only did they
do a design but many different options and views, all viewable in a format that looked
like someone was really holding our brochure. Plus often added in a random off the
cuff option. Each revision he still gave several versions each time. I have gone through
3 different designers here in the usa, the cost was the same but I was left with nothing
from the USA people, only a ticking per hour bill and a very poor try. Communication. I
am convinced Ikram and the team are awake 24 / 7. I got a reply no matter what time day
or night I sent a message, the response was always ‘we will do that revision and have
it back to you by X time and they kept to that time - always. Very proffessional, talented,
patient, encouraging, amazing ideas. I will work with them again because of their talent
and getting things turned around so quickly but also because I have never met someone
so incredibly patient with me. They spent a lot more time because i did not have the text
correct from the start and it made a lot more work for them.
So next time I will make sure that what I deliver to them is proofed and finaled and
respect their time. I will use them for the corresponding website and also anything else
we have coming up too. I am so excited to have found our tribe and team without having
the over head of in house marketing. Thank you Ikram and your team for outstanding
work, etiquette, and wonderful patience and respect. Both Dr. Ron and I are your biggest
fans for sure. ”
