Summary


I am a graduate of Eastern Connecticut State University with a Fine Arts degree concentrating in Digital Art and Design as well as a minor in Studio Art. While attending school during my final semester, I acquired a graphic design position in a fast-paced retail environment. What started out as a temporary position turned into a long term stay. This was the result of the quality of my work and fitting in so well with the creative team. There I learned tips and tricks on how to speed up my work-flow while retaining the creative quality of work. After graduation, I moved on to a graphic design role working for an advertising agency, where I worked on everything from digital and print design to full web design using Wordpress as well as pairing a lot of my own HTML, CSS, and Javascript. My strengths consist of Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign with the ability to use HTML and CSS. I am also familiar with programs such as Adobe After Effects plus many Microsoft Office programs including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. I am someone who really enjoys learning and in my spare time, you'll find me trying to learn new programs and forms of coding for web development.
