Hey There!
I am Wendy Tabor, a seasoned Certified RGD (Registered Graphic Designer) proudly affiliated with the Association of Registered Graphic Designers. My professional focus encompasses the realms of Graphic and User Experience Design, with a dedicated commitment to promoting accessibility in every facet of my work.
Who is Wendy?
Guided by the philosophy that "Variety is the spice of life," I approach design with a keen sense of diversity and creativity. As an advocate for inclusive design, I strive to create solutions that resonate with a broad audience.
Beyond the confines of design, I find solace in the art of photography and the written word. Lifelong learning is a principle I hold dear, ensuring that my skills remain at the forefront of the dynamic design landscape.
Characterized by a creative and curious disposition, I tackle challenges with a strategic mindset. Clever problem-solving is a hallmark of my approach, and I continually seek opportunities to push the boundaries of innovation within my craft.
