Hi, I'm Wendy Marshall, a graphic designer from Southwest Virginia. I focus on branding, packaging, and layout design. The projects I love most are the ones where I can dive into the problem and tinker away until all the puzzle pieces click together with that a-ha! moment.
My path into design wasn't a straight line. I've always been creative, but it took some time exploring different fields before I found graphic design and realized it was the right fit. After stepping away from school for a period and gaining real-world experience, I returned to Radford University to study graphic design with a clearer sense of direction and purpose.
I'm especially drawn to projects with multiple moving parts, where I can build cohesive visual systems and carry an idea across different touchpoints. I value clear communication, direct and constructive feedback, and visually solving problems in a thoughtful and well-resolved way.

Adding Lightbox to Image

Select multiple images at once and add a Lightbox from the Effects panel.

You may also want to change the cursor to "Zoom In" so that users know the image can be enlarged.
