Hi, my name is Liv Ward.

I’m a Chicagoland graphic designer, copywriter and social media coordinator. I help companies establish their social media and print presence through design, photography, writing and advertising strategies.

I dove into graphic design at a very young age, teaching myself the programs and techniques along the way. I started off learning how to retouch my photos for early social media and the barely-read blogs that came with the early 2000s internet culture.

Photo retouching developed into a full-fledged interest in photography. For much of my teenage years, I could be seen toting around a camera, trying to capture something. Anything. Photography sparked my passion for photojournalism and print journalism, thus I became a student journalist and blogger for a number of years.

My degree in graphic art and background in journalism made it an easy transition into Lewis University’s Interactive Media program, where I discovered my knack for social media marketing. Needless to say, I love all things media and I plan on pursuing an advanced degree in media and culture.
