About

Experienced design with a flair for exhibits, marketing and branding

Hello! My name is Chris Johnson. I am a graphic designer, project manager, and photographer with over 20 years of experience telling visual stories for museums, visitor centers, community theaters, and small businesses. I am honored to have played an integral role in several award-winning projects.

I love the process of discovering the unique story of a place or a business, then finding compelling ways to tell that story using branding, social media, website design, printed and digital media, typography and photography. I take pride in creating beautiful compositions that inform, excite, and encourage action. I have an insatiable curiosity and am constantly learning new skills to use in my craft.

My core competencies include:
• graphic layout
• logo design
• photo manipulation
• typography
• infographics and maps
• 3D modeling in SketchUp and Fusion 360
• project management
• art direction
• WordPress website design and management
• social media marketing
• marketing plans

The programs that I work in are InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, SketchUp, Fusion 360, SketchBook, PowerPoint, Keynote, Hubspot, Asana, Canva, Spark, Slack, WordPress, Elementor, Word, Pages, Google Docs, Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets
