6.
Image Selection and Editing: Choose and edit images that complement the content and theme, considering accessibility and alt-text descriptions for screen readers.
6.
Responsive Design: Ensure the website is fully responsive and provides a seamless experience across various devices and screen sizes.
7.
Feedback Implementation: Work closely with me to understand vision and preferences, incorporating feedback throughout the design process.

Fluent in English, as there will be a lot of written communication, and I can't afford to lose time and money when key details are lost in translation.

•
Strong understanding of visual design principles, especially in a minimalist and clean aesthetic.
•
Knowledge of web accessibility standards, particularly for visually impaired users.
