Welcome to my Online Portfolio
Hi, my name is Erick Zimmat, I am a web & graphic designer based in Denver, CO. My website is currently under construction. Soon this site will harbor a blog, portfolio, services offered and information about myself. Currently I'm accepting freelance projects in web design, print, and motion graphics. You can contact me below, find out more about me and view my recent work.
My Background
I recently graduated with my Bachelors in Digital Arts and Design from Full Sail, Florida's leading school for digital arts. In college my program covered graphic design from the basic level all the way through advanced motion graphics, 3D, videography and a long course in web design. I was formally trained in:
- Adobe CS3 Suite
- Final Cut Pro Studio
- 3D Studio Max 8
I've spent a lot of my time researching the W3C web standards and practice building sites to meet all those standards. I also work hard daily on progressing my skills in all the Adobe and similar design programs, as well as the most useful coding languages. A list of these can be found below:

Present
I'm currently pursuing a career doing web, graphic and motion design. I have been doing primarily freelance and maintenance work since graduating college almost a year ago. In the process I've met some great clients and friends, furthering my desire and passion for design.
Open to all forms of work, I would love to work with an amazing company or an inspired client. The experience gained so far in my career only excites me about future possibilities.
So…Thanks for Reading!
