Hello, and welcome to m morian designs! Please feel free to browse our site, and let us know how we can help you build a presence on the web...
Welcome to my Kennesaw Internet Professional (KIP) Portfolio! Completion of this portfolio was the final requirement to receive the KIP Program Certificate. It was a labor of love, and many, many nights went into its creation! The hard work paid off, though, as my portfolio was named "Best in Show" for our graduating class. Since creating this site, my design and development skills have improved greatly - and there have been many changes in the world of web design - but I wanted to leave this site up to inspire those who are currently going through the KIP Program, as well as anyone who may be considering pursuing a career in web design - Good luck!
My name is Marcy Morian. Having completed the Kennesaw Internet Professional (KIP) Program at Kennesaw State University, I have learned the most up-to-date methods in web design, including interactive design and best practices for making websites "user friendly". I have developed my graphic design skills on a freelance basis for many years, and I enjoy seeing designs come to life on the web.
I have found that, while many business owners could truly benefit from having a website to promote their products and services, they find that the concept of hiring someone to create a website is intimidating. I would like to help remove that "fear of the unknown," and provide clients with the perfect web solution, large or small, customized to fit their needs.
I invite you to view my project portfolio below (best viewed in Internet Explorer 7 or Firefox), which represents the projects completed throughout the KIP program.
