Joseph Karouta

From the day I started at Sarto, I was responsible for all the design process, starting with the concept phase to the finalization of the project.
I am part of a team consisting of an art director, senior designer and a web developer.
In a small amount of time, I was able to prove myself, share my expertise and affect positively the work process and especially in what concerns the clients feedback towards our deliverables.
Moreover, I had the chance to improve myself and develop my skills as I have work on different types of projects, such as calendar kits ideas for the government sectors, branding, print design, web design, custom made items, trophies, events, etc...
