    About Ke S.

    HI. My name is Ké and I come from an extremely eclectic learning background that will probably benefit you in many different ways since I have a lot of training and experience in a variety of subjects! I currently work as an illustrator and can help you with various artistic challenges you might have. I know that digital artwork is taught in schools and some people are just having problems understanding some of the complex computer programs out there. Believe me, I know! I've been in that same boat, too, and I'm here to help you understand and achieve those goals. I also worked as a stage actor for some time. If you're an acting student I can probably help you get those break throughs you might need to really shine! Lets see if I can help you out. I've been privately teaching since the late 1990's. I bet we can make something positive happen with your learning goals!

    City of Oceanside

    I was responsible for creating a series of animated public service announcements for the City of Oceanside using Adobe Photoshop and After Effects. I worked side by side with the Assistant City Clerk in realizing her vision towards promoting the voting campaigns for the City. Aside from weekly meetings this was a solo project, and creating 8 shorts in about six weeks by myself was a first for me, and quite a challenge.

    Off Road Nights Dirt Lifestyle Festival

    I was hired by X Games medalist Rat Sult to provide a redesign to existing logos, as well as make up banners and t shirts for his annual Off Road Night Dirt Lifestyle held in Temecula, CA. I worked entirely remotely. Rat was a great guy to work with, and we didn't interact in person until we met at the actual event. During the creative process he had clear ideas in his head of what he wanted pictures to look like, and it was sometimes a struggle realizing that, but it all worked out in the end with great success.
