About Joshua David Thayer

I AM A BOSTON-BASED GRAPHIC AND WEB DESIGNER.

Growing up, I was always drawing, which eventually led me to art school and painting. After school, I worked in the printing, graphic design, and publishing worlds for a long time. Recently, I've completed some additional learning which has led me to tackling web design and development.

I'm into music, art, photography, movies, geocaching, ice cream, and cooking.
