I am the owner of and the designer behind Avue Design! Don’t ask me what “Avue” stands for or even how to pronounce it – it’s a made up word that I thought looked interesting… The ‘Design’ part though, is what my business is all about.

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2013 and quickly realized I wanted to upgrade to a more professional set up. I learned to use all the Adobe software for photo editing and through Adobe Illustrator I discovered the world of graphic design. Looking to put my new creative skills to use, I started making websites with WordPress. I still create lots of images and videos, both for clients and private use. Recently I have added a drone to the mix!

What I love about my job

In the past 10 years I have created many websites for a variety of businesses. No business is the same so naturally neither are the websites I create, which makes every project really exciting. I love tackling a new website or graphic design project to get the perfect result for my clients and I enjoy the interaction with them along the way to make sure I’m on the right track with the vision they have for their product.

This job offers an incredible level of flexibility, as it can be performed anywhere in the world. (And I do love to travel!) However, I mostly work from my cozy office at home on beautiful Vancouver Island.
Fun fact: the wind mill in the image I created for this section, is from my hometown in the Netherlands where I grew up; the falls are the Elk Falls in Campbell River, the city I get to call home now.
