About Charmaine Martinez

Grew up in a series of strangely similar Air Force Bases scattered throughout the world. Especially enjoyed living on Guam. Is a stickler for details, both written and visual. Loves beautiful typography, books by Margaret Atwood, and the sound of the ocean. Brings dedication and perseverance to every project—whether it is designing a logo or making a pie. Believes good design can make the world a better place. To that end, is trying to inspire the next generation of graphic designers with rigorous, yet nurturing instruction, at California Polytechnic State University in pastoral San Luis Obispo.
