About

In my 10+ years of graphic design work, I have brought a level of insight to all of my projects that is exceptional and rare. I have excellent attention to detail and am known for catching things that others miss. My diverse and eclectic experience allows me to design for all aesthetics. I am a great problem solver, a quick, eager learner, and quick to adapt to needs.

An example of this is when I reformatted a past employer’s graphic submission guidelines. I streamlined and rearranged the info so that clients could more quickly understand what formats work best. This has increased the submission of appropriately formatted graphics and therefore increased our efficiency in production.

I am always looking forward to new puzzles and challenges and am excited for a future of increasing impact with creativity wherever I go.
