Who Am I?

George Street, Sydney, Australia 2007

My name is Blake McCreary, and I am a freelance designer specializing in a broad range of design skills. Content management has become my central focus. My career found it’s start during my design study at Ball State University. I consider web design as the epicenter of all design including logos, branding, and way finding.

I run a hosting company called theDesignerHost.com, because I love helping other designers do what I do.

As I expand my own knowledge on a daily basis, I will share my findings so that other designers like you and I can interact. Thank you for reading!

Need help with a project? I’m available for hire and my personal portfolio can be viewed here.
