Hi! My name’s Kirsty Tamayo. Most people, mistakingly, call me Kristy, Cassidy or even Jessie, but it’s Kirsty.

I was born and raised in Cambridgeshire, England and later obtained a BA(Hons) in Graphic Design and Advertising at Bucks New University. Then, with a willingness to learn, an eagerness to enhance my career, and an ambition to ultimately live my dreams, I moved out to California on my own at the age of 21 and worked as a Graphic Design, Website Designer and Marketing Specialist for a company located on Catalina Island. I also quickly discovered that 'Kirsty' isn't a particularly popular name in America, and no-one really knows what I'm saying when I give them my name.

Working freelance gives me the ability to work with people all around the world. I have created a network of clients, some of whom I now consider good friends. Before going solely freelance I spent a large amount of time reading, researching and making sure that I am the best designer I can be. What I love most about working as a Graphic and Website designer is that I'm constantly learning. I'm constantly striving to improve my skills, learn a new technique, and give you the best result possible for your project. I'm passionate about what I do and I love to help enhance peoples businesses; whether it's through my innovative designs, beautifully designed websites, or my meaningful marketing advice.

I have over 8 years experience in the design industry and have worked in London, New York and Los Angeles. Over that time I have realized that I’m a perfectionist, strive for self accomplishment (and from those around me) and, apparently, I have pretty neat handwriting. I have an abundance of skills including (but not limited to);

And when i’m not making things look pretty, I’m spending time with my husband and our perfectly adorable little boy.

If you want to say 'hi!', hire me for a project, or see how neat my handwriting is, feel free to drop me an e-mail! As long as you call me 'Kirsty', I promise to reply (otherwise, there's a chance I won't get it).
