About Me


My name is Haley Marie Tolzmann. I claim the title of photographer/graphic designer. I graduated from Stevens-Henager College with a degree in Graphic Design. I also attended Utah Valley University for photography classes. I am proficient in the Adobe Creative Suites. I work with Photoshop and Illustrator regularly. I would consider myself to be computer literate since I am the one my family calls whenever they need computer help. I feel that I am a very strong designer with passion and drive. I would never claim to know everything about design as there is always something new to learn. Technology is always expanding and I am happy to learn and grow with it. All though I have completed the schooling necessary to earn the title "Graphic Designer," I strongly feel that the worth of the title depends on how much work and effort you put into design. Your creative side needs to be in constant use, ready to discover something new that no one has done before.

I have great work ethic. The majority of my past employers would beg for me to come work for them again if I could. No matter where I have been employed, I have always strived to do my best and exceed the expectations of my peers. I am very dependable and rarely, if ever, take time off from work. A lot of my past work experience has been in the corporate world. At times I have been the secretary and at times I have been the senior. The most important quality to have as an employee and as a person in general is integrity. Integrity is something that I definitely have and take pride in. I have been doing my own photography business on the side of working other places. It has been a real reward to be able to meet and work with all different types of people. Managing my own photography as well as my other work experience has given me the confidence needed to succeed in all that I do.

In my spare time I spend it with my son. I am a very active person and enjoy running, racquetball, snowboarding and swimming. I love to go camping and be outdoors. Family is very important to me. I am a very religious person as well. My favorite hobby is photography, which happens to be what I have spent the past six years doing. In general, I am very confident and happy, not just with who I am but with life as well.
