Lakia Ross Creative: Graphic Design for Print and Web produces graphic design, web design and marketing services in Atlanta, the United States and Internationally.

My name is Lakia Ross, and I am a graphic designer based
in Atlanta, Georgia.

I understand that the smallest idea can create enormous change, but only if that idea can be realized and shared.

I help your ideas become tangible by designing websites that can grow, change, and profit; brochures that are actually read, and business cards that people keep.

I would love to partner with you and make your dreams for your business become reality.

WHY LAKIA ROSS CREATIVE?

Investigation. I research every project. That means you won't have to worry about someone else having your business name, domain name, etc. It also means that I will find you the best price for hosting, domains and printing.
Communication. Your project details and timeline are emailed to you; I am available by Skype during business hours. That means you know what's going to happen on your project, and you know exactly what deliverables you have purchased. You can always send me a message or email and get quick answers to your questions.
Experience. Twenty-feet-long banners, two-inch by two-inch ads, and press-checks in the wee hours of the morning; my print design experience will serve you well. From twenty-five page websites to 30-second book trailers, my multimedia experience will keep you ahead of them all.
The Bottom Line. I work within your limitations to create the best possible solution promptly and efficiently.
Flexibility. I provide several options on projects to help meet your budget.
