About
Hello. I am Annika Keeling, owner of ARK Design.
The majority of my career was spent at Adidas where I was a Production Artist and Production Art Manager from 2007-2017. I would take designs built by the creative team and build them for 50+ college teams. I worked directly with sales reps when they had a special request and built artwork to their specifications. I assigned workload, proofed artwork, and reviewed seasonal catalogs. In these many roles, I learned a lot about typography, design, and myself.
In 2010, I started doing freelance design work on the side. Over the years, I’ve slowly added to my client base and have built good relationships with these clients. Each project is much more than a job to me. I see it as an opportunity to grow as a designer, learn something new, and impress the heck out of the client. I love the process of taking someones thoughts and ideas, putting the pieces together, and coming up with a great design.
In April of 2018, I decided to pursue freelance work full time and ARK Design was officially born. I look forward to the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.
