Designs beautiful things

Anna Grace is a born designer and loves to be around people. She has a zest for life and brings that to every aspect of her graphic design work.

ABOUT

In her spare time, Anna Grace is either taking amazing photographs of the world around her, running a 5K, or spending time with her friends and family. Through a career in graphic design, she hopes to impact others through the careful combination of type and image working together to create something beautiful. "I want to show people the beauty in the world that they often miss, whether it is through an exquisite logo design, a user friendly website layout, or a simple poster with gorgeous typography." Anna Grace graduated from James Madison University with a double major in graphic design (BFA) and corporate communications (BA) with hopes of utilizing her skills in both art and communication to contribute to a team. Fortunately for us, that team is Blue Ocean Ideas and we are so excited to have her on board.
