About
I am currently a rising senior studying Interior Architecture at the Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA) who has an interest in retail design and environmental graphics.
I feel the projects I have accomplished at CIA have prepared me for working in the design field by focusing on retail design, re-branding strategies, space planning by hand and in Autodesk AutoCAD, and how to effectively portray my ideas through architectural illustration and dynamic compositions.
My continuing internship at Hy-Ko Products Co. has enabled me to learn more about graphic design and how to apply it to real world situations, which in turn has allowed me to provide them with commercial sign designs that will be produced for Walmarts nationwide in April 2014. I will be focusing on designing retail display ideas for them this upcoming summer.
I am open to freelance work and would love to help you communicate your company's brand through any design application. If you hire me, you won't be disappointed. -
