I actually worked with numerous design agencies, and the big clients are the clients of those agencies. This is because most clients (big and small) prefer working with their local design firm, rather than a freelancer online.

So while I have worked on projects for big companies, I dont have many connections. I am trying to really break out of working as a cheap nameless designer that design firms outsource to, and become a professional freelance designer and developer.
