Hi there! My name is Kim Old and I am passionate about helping small businesses develop their brand and contributing to projects that help build a healthier community.
Background
My background in design started over 10 years ago with formal training in the visual arts, giving me the foundation to jump into the design world. Since then I have worked in a variety of positions (from agency and web design work to non-profit and educational marketing) and gained experience working with a wide range of clients and industries. Logo and identity design have grown to become my passion, along with illustration work.
Values
It is important for me to choose projects that resonate with me and I am conscious of the impact design can make in the world. In particular I like to get involved with projects that help build a healthier community in some way—whether it is raising awareness of an important message or event, helping a local business with a great product or service, or working with social and environmental groups to create more impact.
Inspiration
When I get a chance to sneak away from work for a bit I am often out getting some much needed nature time…off on an adventure hiking, backpacking or cycling around Vancouver Island. I am grateful to be surrounded by an abundance of wilderness where I live and find it to be a great source of inspiration in my work.
