About Jason D. Moore
It is my passion to create quality graphic and web designs for individuals, small businesses, not-for-profits and religious organizations so that they may be more successful in their endeavors and reach out to their audiences in new and effective ways.
I don’t treat my clients as accounts. I work to build lasting relationships because the better I get to know you and your business, the better I can serve you and your long-term needs.
Clarity and communication are not luxuries, they are essential parts of any project. I like to make sure that my clients and I have an open and ongoing dialog about our projects by sending updates so we can remain on the same page throughout.
It’s all about the target audience. I try to keep the consumer of the design in mind throughout the process so that every decision my clients and I make reflect the overall goals of reaching that target audience where they are.
In addition to my design work, I strive to educate, inspire, and engage new designers through my various projects and initiatives so not only will I develop in my own work but also that they may grow in their’s. I share tips, techniques and tutorials from both myself as well as other creative professionals working in the field today through blog posts, Q&A sessions, product reviews here on the site, through social media interactions and through my graphic design podcast: Graphic Talk Radio.

Personal:
I reside in Johnson City, NY, USA – near Binghamton, close to the Pennsylvania border – with my wife Kim, a talented artist and elementary school art teacher – our son Liam, and our dachshund Milo. I am the Outreach & Web Assistant for the Cornell Center for Technology Enterprise & Commercialization (CCTEC) at Cornell University. I have a BA cum laude from Boston University and have circumnavigated the globe through the Semester at Sea study abroad program. I’m a cinefile, traveler, and lover of the outdoors.
