About Me
My name is Raven Martin and I'm a passionate and imaginative designer who loves exploring creative ideas. Typography, handwritten styles, and bold, attention-grabbing designs are my favourites. When I’m not designing, you’ll find me outdoors rock climbing, hiking, or camping, always drawing inspiration from nature. I also enjoy drawing and painting in my spare time. For me, design is all about bringing personality and purpose together, and I’m excited to keep learning and creating along the way!
