Liz Andrade

Trained in design, and a self-proclaimed “web geek,” I’m interested in web solutions that pay detailed attention to both form and function.

With experience working as the principal web designer at a Seattle boutique-style firm, I bring my knowledge and passion for web to my one-woman design studio, located in Seattle’s Lower Queen Anne neighborhood.

While I now specialize in online media — I have worked both independently and collaboratively on all sorts of print design projects including; branding & identity, promotional materials, collateral, and annual reports. View my portfolio to see a examples of my work.

During my years doing in-house design for a Seattle luxury presentation company — I learned the art of brand management and designed marketing materials for every facet of the company including; Brochures, trade show displays, promotional materials, sales materials, collateral materials, packaging, websites, and e-marketing.

I now live and work in Seattle where I own and operate CMD+Shift Design. I love my family. I love my computer and my cat (who is named Computer). I love code and color. I love organizing things; my books, my movies, my hard drive. I love technology, I love the city, I love food. I love typography. I love learning and drawing, blogging. I love public transportation, punctuality, and lazy Sundays.
