ABILITIES • • •
I am a skilled graphic designer with a talent for translating the ‘concept’ into visual designs. I work well with other teams and on my own to determine brand identity and develop concepts that maximize impact while staying true to the desired image. My current position has made me comfortable delivering high quality work from my team under tight budgets and time constraints. I pride myself on my dedication to the project at hand and attention to detail. I enjoy being challenged; my energetic personality keeps me creative and focused while driving a project to completion.

In addition to my contributions as a designer, team leader and creative coach, my abilities extend throughout the creative process: conception, brainstorming, mock ups/sketches, renders, scheduling, execution, review and measuring success. I enjoy developing good working relationships with colleagues and work closely with clients to provide appropriate solutions.
