Hello!
My name is Kevin Cortez (he/him), or as my mom calls me: Kevito.
I am a graphic designer based in Los Angeles, California. Drawing was my first love and music was my second. I am constantly inspired by psychology and how culture influences us all. Somebody once told me that's because I'm a Libra, but I think I just find it fun.
I earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree from California State University, Los Angeles under the Graphic Design/Visual Communications option. With an emphasis in print design and marketing strategy, I have also worked doing logo design, branding, social media, illustration, freelance photography, copywriting, video production, merchandise design and art direction.
​
I have had the honor of working with world-renowned trailblazers such as DC Comics, Netflix, and Interscope Records. Most recently, I earned a Certificate of Recognition from the City of West Hollywood for my contributions to queer arts. My experience has helped sharpen my skills and allowed me to push my creative process while remaining a student for life.
​
I take my craft very seriously, but myself not at all.
