    I am a graphic designer from Seattle. Over the past few years, I have attended multiple CreativeTechs classes. I have also worked for several different agencies that enlisted the services of CreativeTechs. CreativeTechs is an amazingly knowledgeable and helpful company and the classes I took were very informative.
