About Michael Kozoroz

GRAPHIC DESIGNER and TEACHER -Creative and top performing multimedia artist with more than 25 years of experience in graphic design, multimedia art and animation-Proven track record in creating both practical and innovative designs to meet client needs. HIGHLIGHTS OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS -I took initiative of learning a 3D program that no one opened and I figured out a way to create better-looking graphics in less than half the time-I worked on my days off (Brought my sleeping bag) and finished a project for which the deadline was bumped up a week earlier. I finished two days early and received an "Award of Excellence" for it-Extensive software skills and recently I became a Graphic Design teacher in August of 2021 in Flatrock, North Carolina.
