About
Background
Owner and designer Juli Duffer brings a broad base of experience to her work, ranging from traditional art to the latest in multimedia technology. She grew up in the Chicago area and moved to Colorado in 1994 where she lives with her husband and two children. An artist and writer, Juli enjoys sprinkling her creativity into all that she does.
Experience
Design and Technology
Juli combines her creative side with an ever growing cache of technical skills. She has worked in many areas of graphic design and continues to build her portfolio. Although her passion is with design, her technical, organizational and communication skills lend strength to all aspects of the design process, including web development and production.
Traditional Art
A compulsive crafter, Juli has dabbled in mixed media collage, paper making, book binding, jewelry making, flower arranging, paper dolls and painting. She has made a business creating and selling handmade cards featuring real flowers and textured papers and "tea party girls" — paper dolls and greeting cards made out of reclaimed tea wrappers. She seeks beauty in the unexpected and likes to find uses for materials that might otherwise be discarded. Her studio is a mix of labeled bins and organized chaos.
Education
Juli has a B.A. in Advertising/Marketing from the College of Communications, Journalism and Performing Arts at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She recently earned a certificate in Multimedia Web Design from Front Range Community College in Westminster, Colorado. Her love of learning compels her to continually try new things and "learn new tricks."
