Welcome! Nice to meet you!
I'm Leslie Kochevar, a Graphic Designer with over 15 years of professional experience, working in both corporate and freelance environments.
I returned to RMCAD part-time in 2021 to finish my degree. I always knew I'd go back and the time felt right! I'm so happy I did; It allowed me to refresh my skills and gain new skills such as animation. I graduated in May 2024 Summa Cum Laude with a BFA in Graphic Design from Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design. Now armed with both experience and formal training, my skill set is broad and deep.
A little more about me...
My mom was an editor from the age of 15 at her local newspaper. I grew up in publishing (she was always an editor and sometimes a publisher) and I'm naturally drawn to the publishing industry. My dream role is as an art director of a travel, gardening, or food magazine.
