Hello, and thank you for taking the time to view my portfolio. I've always had a strong interest in the arts and finding creative ways to express ideas visually. I've been a professional graphic designer for over four years, developing a diverse set of technical and creative skills along the way. I've had a passion for graphic design for quite some time, especially when it comes to the many brands and visual identities we encounter every day. I often find myself naturally critiquing the designs around me, sometimes drawing inspiration from them and other times thinking about how I might approach them differently. To me, that's one of the most exciting parts of design: there's always something new to learn, refine, and explore. I am looking for an opportunity to continue to grow and contribute my skills as a designer, while bringing my creative style to the team.
Outside of design, I enjoy going on hikes and taking in the views, spending time at the gym, and playing a round of disc golf on a nice day. I'm also an amateur guitar player, although I'm still working toward the day when I can confidently say I actually know what I'm doing. I enjoy producing beats and experimenting with R&B and Hip-Hop-inspired sounds.
At R.R. Donnelley, I work within the investment banking industry, collaborating with bankers and analysts to produce polished, high-quality designs ranging from presentations to event printed graphics. The role operates in a fast-paced production environment, supporting clients from around the world and often working with tight deadlines and quick turnaround times. This experience has strengthened my ability to work efficiently, adapt to last-minute changes, and consistently deliver professional, presentation-ready designs.
At the Quantum Group, our clients were financial advisors and our goal was to support them in building stronger, more successful firms. My role was to serve as their dedicated designer, managing multiple clients while maintaining their existing brands and handling a wide range of ongoing design needs.
At SmartPractice, our primary clients were clinic owners within the dental, veterinary, and vision markets. Working in this environment helped me grow as a designer by requiring me to adapt to different audiences, industries, design styles, and project requirements. It also strengthened my skills in time management, meeting deadlines, and collaborating effectively as part of a team.
I worked within the College of Theology, managing a variety of projects and administrative tasks that supported both student life and the college's staff and faculty.
Although this position was not primarily design-focused, my time at Boosterthon was a valuable opportunity to develop my leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills. The role required me to work closely with a team while regularly interacting with students, teachers, parents, and administrators across different schools.
I will make sure to review your email and get back to you ASAP!
