My name is Emilio Servigon and I am a designer based in Manhattan, Kansas. I focus on delivering conceptually strong media for the web and print.
My interest in design started in high school back in Guayaquil, Ecuador. This lead to a move to the United States to attend college. After transferring schools, print became the main focus. Thanks to my active involvement in student life, I was constantly creating promotional pieces that eventually helped me obtain internships and freelance assignments. After a year in the workforce, I decided to further my education and now I am a graduate student majoring in visual communications at Kansas State University.
My current work focuses on the adjustment of international students to the American life and culture.
