About me

Hi! My name is Marie Holme Kjær, and I'm a graphic designer based in Kristiansand. Outside of design, I enjoy spending time with my husband and pets, playing video games, and playing trumpet in Søgne Musikkorps.

Education

I recently completed my Graphic Design studies at Noroff, after beginning the programme on campus in Kristiansand and later continuing online. Before switching to Graphic Design, I studied Web Development at NTNU Gjøvik. I completed most of the programme before deciding to pursue graphic design, as I found myself more interested in the visual and creative side of digital products.

During my studies at Noroff, I explored different design styles and experimented wherever possible. I have experience in packaging and labeling, printed media such as posters and folders, brand development, website design, social media content, motion design, and photography. I focus on adapting my designs to the needs of each project, keeping them clear and consistent while exploring creative details. I also enjoy trying out new styles, tools, and techniques to find what works best for each project.

During my web development studies, I learned HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and back-end development. I also took classes in project management, information architecture, databases, and cloud technologies.

I built this portfolio website from scratch to reflect my combined background in Web Development and Graphic Design. You can see the GitHub repository with the code here.
