About
Hi, I’m Tim Brennan, a graphic and visual designer based in Ames, Iowa, with over 11 years of professional experience creating print and digital marketing materials.
Whether I’m designing for print or digital media, my goal is to help people understand information quickly and confidently through thoughtful organization and attention to detail. I create reusable layouts and templates that help keep information clear, consistent, and easy to update. I also believe good design should be accessible, with clear hierarchy, legible typography, and layouts that are easy to navigate.
I’m currently working toward the Google UX Design Professional Certificate to continue building my skills in accessibility, user research, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing.
