Freelance Designer & Illustrator

Creative & Design

I am a hard working, self motivated, level headed designer who is a big picture thinker that specializes in brand development across a wide variety of platforms. I use excellent storytelling to connect brands with their target audiences.Currently, I am freelancing and am looking for a position at a company that has a collaborative, daring, enthusiastic design team. I believe that the best work always comes from collaboration, because that is where fresh ideas are made.As for skills I bring to the table, I am well versed in the Adobe Creative Suite andMicrosoft Office, I have a basic understanding of Html/CSS, I have experience in brandidentity, packaging, promotional pieces, illustration, and more. The clients I’ve workedwith range from Coca-Cola to small non-profits. My experience working in a leadershiprole at a therapeutic program enhanced my communication skills and strengthened myproblem solving ability, so I can work well with all kinds of people in fast paced, stressfulsituations. What sets me apart from some other creative people is that I am both left brainedand right brained: I can see the big picture and create a timely, detailed plan for how to getthere. I am highly creative while also being extremely logical and timely, so my comfort zone is working on multifaceted projects and leading a team to reach our creative goals.
