Hello, my name is Dan Jae Smith. I'm a Graphic Designer from Frederick, MD.

With a background in print and publication design as well as full-service marketing and design agency experience, I am a Maryland-based graphic designer with over eight years of experience under my belt. I enjoy the collaborative nature of design and the impact that it can have on the community. ​
