I am Jaime Armenta, a graphic designer born and raised in El Paso, Texas. I studied Graphic Design and Printmaking at The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). I generally draw inspiration from my hometown as well as my past experiences. My work consists of shapes and the way colors contrast with one another as I tend to tie everything together with the color palettes I work with.
I was first introduced to graphic design in the form of a print shop in high school. This made me intrigued into learning more about the many aspects of design, and I have been in love ever since. I am grateful that I can continue grow as a designer and make it into a career.
