Hello

i am shari

Hello, I'm Shari Canete, a San Diego-based creative thinker with drive, passion, and extensive experience and knowledge of print media, brand communication, and digital design. With an educational background in film, communications, and graphic design, I love to tell a story. Whether it's evident in the branding or in the photography, I aim to capture the history, the untold, and the essence of what makes any organization unique.

Aside from designing, I also love dogs, coffee, food, working out, and photographing dogs, coffee, and food. See some of the things I worked on below...
