Work Background
The Homoarchy BlogBranding Specialist & Web Designer
Jan. 2018Washington D.C. Metro AreaThe Homoarchy is a Blog in Washington. I had the opportunity to develop their Visual Identity and Branding for this project and other Organizations they manage. (Remote Freelance) I received the following recommendation from the Blogger/Owner Justine Kreher: "I would enthusiastically recommend MJ Salinas, who designed a logo and header for my website. She was receptive to ideas, communicated in a timely manner, and delivered everything in a very reasonable amount of time. When I discovered that some other website already had a theme similar to the ideas I had sent her originally, I was very disappointed. She came up with a completely new concept that wound up actually being much better in terms of branding and over all look. I was grateful for the new ideas and am extremely happy with the final result." -Justine Kreher, The Homoarchy
