Beginner level graphic designer needed

I’m launching a small venture and need a clean, minimalist logo to anchor the brand. I’m not attached to any particular color palette yet, so we can talk through combinations that suit the overall mood once you have a feel for the concept. I value fresh ideas over years of experience, so if you’re comfortable with Adobe Illustrator (or another vector-friendly tool) and can show samples that prove you understand negative space, simple geometry, and balanced typography, you’re perfect for this. What I expect from you: • Two or three initial concept sketches so we can lock in direction quickly • A refined final logo delivered as editable vector files (AI/SVG) plus high-resolution PNG/JPG • A short style guide noting fonts and final color codes Let me know your typical turnaround for each phase, and feel free to share any questions or inspiration you think would help.
