Introduction

I am a visionista! Need inspiration? Or consulting? I got the ideas. Got a project in mind? I can help!

Freelance Work

If you have a project you are working on that just needs a little more "umph" to it, I can help. Spice up that powerpoint presentation and let's make it a bit more interactive. Or maybe that dull brochure just needs a face-lift. I am also available for brainstorming sessions! We can get creative together and strategize a new brand for you. What tools do you need to market yourself?

Exuding sultry, soulful tunes with a variety of guest singers, they asked me to design with the text and use a heart. With those two requests, I produced this album, worthy of its golden record.

Introduction

Recently reviewed in the Independent Weekly,Porch Rockin' is all about making a good sandwich. Biting into Liza Zaytoun's homemade cashew butter and strawberry honeysuckle sandwich with bacon and bananas always makes a big happy smile (and tummy!). It was not hard to get inspired for this logo.

This was my very first video assignment, where we reenacted a poem or song. I chose Roald Dahl's "Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf" as I wanted to use one of my favorite songs as well by Sam Sham and the Pharoahs.

About Mi

Introduction

Hey there! My name is Julie Mi Chin. My real name is Jiwon but Julie, Jules, J-Dawg(no, not really) are the names I go by.

From graphics to web to video, I love the whole creative process and possibilities that are involved in each project.

EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES! I like that as my tagline. That is how I like to approach my projects.

Besides sitting in front of a computer, I love to travel. This year's trip was to Costa Rica, an amazing country, ripe with inspiration. I also like to relax in my yoga classes, bake all sorts of sweets (cookies, cakes, cream puffs!) and play with my dog, Lily! She's a fiery red husky with blue eyes. Very foxy!

I am learning how to surf, play the drums and be a more insightful designer!
