About

It brings me joy to create something that makes someone else smile. I have designed merch, promo products, charity auction items, and ads for several small businesses and organizations, niche websites and publications, and more over the years and it’s been a truly rewarding hobby.

ABOUT ME

It All Started When I Was…

Born in the early 80s (which makes me a geriatric millennial) in Calcasieu Parish, La. I was raised there and part of the time in Southern California (the valley) & East Texas. I’ve lived a lot of different places, but currently reside with my family in the south (not just below the Mason-Dixon, but south of the James River). I am proud that my son’s favorite meals are crawfish étouffée and gumbo (I occasionally like to add a hard-boiled egg to my bowl, the country way). It means he’s being raised right ;)

My Louisiana-born superpower: I make the perfect pot of rice on the stove (eyeball measuring, no rice cooker).

QP Interests

I am on Good Reads and Steam.

Please do not repost, share, upload any Quel Parish original content without attribution or link. Do not copy my designs (ex. to sell items) without prior permission/license from me. From time to time, I do projects for organizations, small businesses, podcasts, etc. as well as custom small designs for individuals, so my style might be seen elsewhere.

Moreover, I keep pretty extensive files, records, licenses, and a ridiculous number of iterations / mockups. It’s not hard to prove when/how I created something. Any comments regarding legality should be directed to Safran Law Offices, 120 S Boylan Ave, Raleigh, NC 27603.
