I’m Ally Gil, a creative designer who, long ago, traded in a paintbrush for a mouse. Believing that the root of design is problem-solving, I’ve been executing my creative skills in the design world for over six years, through graphic, web, and motion design, as well as video editing. When people ask me, “How did you do that?”, my response is always, “Magic.” Design truly is magical, it takes something as simple as letters and images, and creates a connection with people. With exceptional time management expertise, and as a highly organized individual with an eye for detail, I use my creativity to solve company challenges.
