About Tessa

Hello! My Name is Tessa Zoetewey, and I am a Graphic Designer.

I had the opportunity to complete my Master’s in Communication Design at Falmouth University in Cornwall, UK. I graduated from Calvin University with a Bachelor’s in Business with an emphasis in Marketing in 2018.

I first fell in love with graphic design in 8th grade when I did a science fair project that I called “Shout for Bleachy Clean shirts.” While it would probably pain me to look back on it now, I remember it as my first graphic design experience where I was able to express something with extra meaning and creativity.

I’m grateful for the opportunities I’ve been given so far, and I can’t wait to see what I’ll get to design next.
