About this service

Summary

With over 5 years of experience and a portfolio featuring more than a 70 book designs and cover design I have studied design for four years, I understand the challenges my clients face and bring them design solutions that resonate with their audience.

Over these years I have worked on several platforms like Amazon KDP, Apple Books, IngramSpark, BookBaby, Blurb, Lulu, Barnes & Noble Press. I understand the dynamics and specific requirements of these platforms.

Here’s what I can bring to your project:

The art of story telling through visuals because at the end the book is judged by its cover.

Designing compelling layouts, covers, and visuals with InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator.

My designs are not just aesthetically pleasing but also consistent and reader-friendly.

I'm well-versed in prepress technicalities, from color intricacies to binding choices.

Precision in dealing with typesetting, proofing, and ensuring that there are no errors

Familiarity with standard book sizes, regulations, and market expectations.

I might be new to this platform but I am not new to this field, book a 10 minutes call with me and see if I am a perfect fit.
