Hey I'm Jordan Groll. I'm a freelance web graphic designer living near Chicago, Illinois. Ever since I was little, I have always had a passion for designing, whether it was creating web sites, icons, logos, taking photos, or drawing. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree, in Graphic Design, from Saint Xavier University. I'm actively involved in the art community, DeviantART, where I've had the highest honor of receiving a Daily Deviation and my
artwork being viewed over 760,000+ times. Smashing Magazine, a huge online web design publication, have featured my icons in several online articles.
The Windy City
Being able to live near such a thriving city, like Chicago, gives me so much inspiration for what I enjoy doing. Seeing the architecture, talking with many different styles of people, and enjoying the breathtaking views is what Chicago is all about.
Growing up
I always knew I wanted to be an artist. My parents weren't happy about me coloring on the walls though. As I grew older I discovered Web Design and fell in love so I focused my attention on that during college. I love being able to interact with clients to figure out a design that conveys their message to the fullest, while keeping the design clean and modern. To produce something that has the potential to be viewed by anyone anywhere in the world is so gratifying to me.
The Future
For 7 months I interned at Emmis Interactive where I gained valuable experience as a web designer. My long term goal is to be able to work as a professional web designer with other talented designers. I am currently available for full time hire. Feel free to say hello. I love meeting new people.
