Jacob Bigham

I was the sole designer and creative while at Alter Imaging. I assisted the project management team with design thinking while developing the information architecture and met with clients to gather an understanding of their specific goals for a project. I was singly responsible for taking all information and creating wireframes and responsive website designs and presenting them to clients. I delivered detailed and organized working files and assets to the development team and would also assist with making CSS refinements during the QA stages of the development process. I created and refined logo concepts and style guides as well as worked with existing brands while adhering to their established brand guidelines. With regularity, I assisted the marketing department in helping to apply design styles to digital and physical marketing campaigns through social media graphics, email design assets, and printed materials.

I started at Cognition as a junior designer where it was essential for me to learn frontend development. Over time I became the senior designer and frontend developer and eventually the only team member in both roles. My responsibilities in those positions over that span of time consisted of creating logos, style guides, collateral and packaging design, and wireframes and website designs that I would also develop into fully functional frontend websites, assisting the backend development team with applying styling where needed. I regularly interacted with clients in presentation meetings as well as in a support role when it came to updating various content and designs, as well as sourcing and placing orders for printed materials and signage.
