Farah Rizvi Doyle
I consider myself to be very lucky to work in a field I absolutely adore. I am a person who enjoys new design challenges with a punctuation of creative expression; I do my best to seize opportunities to learn more about new and emerging technologies in the design field. With over 15 years of experience in graphic design, packaging design, book design and web design, I have a lot to offer.
I also bring my optimistic attitude into my work.
As a first generation immigrant I had to work extremely hard to be where I am today. I have learned that with persistent hardworking and determination you can achieve anything. I am deeply proud to call myself a U.S. citizen and acknowledge that it is a privilege.
My personal design work focuses on recontextualizing personal memories into new visual forms. My process is a demonstration of reflective self-discovery and cultural connection through making. Through this work, I developed my voice as a designer and achieved a deeper understanding of my dual, and at times conflicting, cultural heritage.
