I’m new here—well, sort of. I started doing freelance design work for JKS Incorporated in mid-October of 2019.

What do Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Western Carolina University Marching Band have in common? They both trusted JKS to wrap their equipment trailer. (They might also both play “Free Bird,” but I don’t know that for a fact.) […]
