who I am

karan PARKIN

I founded parkinDESIGN because I wanted to apply my life long love of art and the creative process and put it to work for my clients. While I’m the owner of my own business in graphic design, I consider each client relationship a partnership – an opportunity to bring my creative skills to work in meeting your business’s needs. I know design and I know the challenges of running a small business or a nonprofit. My goal is to gain enough knowledge of you and your business so that I can help you meet your goals in promotion, marketing, awareness, and growth. You'll find that I'm a rare combination of practicality and creativity.

As we begin our work together, I'll listen to you - to your goals, your purpose, your likes and dislikes. We'll discuss your options and come up with a plan that includes specific tasks and benchmarks that will result in your final products.
I specialize in small businesses and non-profit organizations because I appreciate what it takes to provide a service, whether in business or in the helping professions.

Whether you are an entrepreneur, a restauranteur, an advocate for social justice, or a retail establishment, I understand the focus and determination that it takes to fulfill your goals. I take my role as your partner seriously so that my designs help you toward your goals.

You might be interested in knowing that I’ve been trained as a designer at the Rhode Island School of Design, that I have experience as a financial planner, exercise physiologist and as a national calibur athlete in track and field.
