Summary
James Diel is a self-taught, multidisciplinary creative combining a decade of hands-on experience in graphic design, programming, music and automotive painting. Raised into responsibility early, he turned an autodidactic streak into a practical toolkit—shipping solo game-jam projects where he handled art, code and music, and now freelancing professional concept and graphic design work. Based in Augusta, Kansas, he pairs artistic vision with pragmatic skills like automotive refinishing and construction, making him unusually versatile for client projects that cross digital and physical media. With an AS in Software Development and active portfolios on jamesin2d and GitHub, he’s building a focused freelance practice while bringing the curiosity and independence of a lifelong tinkerer to every brief.
