Developing design solutions across separate divisions, I have developed newsletters for both print and web, designing campaign literature, shooting photography, graphics for various posters, flyers, one-pagers and social media posts, creating elements for websites, signage for various events.

In recent years, I had the opportunity to continue my graphic design work on a freelance basis.At this point, I am eager to make an impact in a full-time role utilizing my past experience and my recently gained skill set.I hope to set up a time to speak with you in person about your needs for this role and how I might fulfill them.
