Being outdoors and loving life.

I am a detail-oriented, self-motivated designer, problem solver, and lover of the outdoors with 10 years of agency graphic design experience. I pride myself in my work ethic and ability to work both efficiently and precisely while keeping the big picture in mind. I am there for my team and clients through the entire process — from strategy and creative, through to design, production, and analytics. I look forward to learning something new everyday and am excited
for what my future holds.

Being part of a boutique firm, I learned to excel at many different skills. Over the 6.5 years
I was at V2Works, I gained invaluable team leadership, organizational, and communication
skills as well as an eagle eye for design and an efficient process.

• Project management and vendor relations including sourcing media, strategies, project budget estimates, project timelines, and organization.

Graphic Designer 

I was hired at The Brewery as a server/bartender, but was soon asked to also help-out with their marketing when they learned about my design background. I helped the owners bring their marketing and advertising ideas to life, while getting to be creative with the design and creation of merchandise and swag sold within the brewery.	

Responsibilties Include:
• Print design of flyers, rack cards, and advertising in local news papers.
• Photography of food and drink for advertisements.
• Sticker, coaster, pint labels, and growler label designs.
