Resume

I was most recently the Director of Creative Media for a tech start-up. In this role, I gained knowledge of a new industry, focused heavily on designing brand standards for clients, & had to be a self-starter working with such a small team. My time at FEM showed me the importance of prioritization, clear communication, & a strong creative vision when working with a small team & rapid deadlines from many clients. Being responsible for providing clients with individualized marketing plans also taught me to regularly evaluate trends so that my clients' businesses were performing well. 

I started at Palmetto Moon in 2019 as a Seasonal E-Commerce Specialist to support their team in the lead-up to the holiday season. I quickly proved my worth by adapting to the needs of the company & picking up new skills left & right. I was brought on in a full-time position after only 3 months & was able to dive deeper into the e-commerce industry with an incredible team of leaders who taught me so much. This position was my first full-time job out of college & it would be impossible to list everything it taught me, but I am forever appreciative of the Palmetto Moon team & exceptionally proud of the work I did for them.

I have been a freelance graphic designer for seven years & sharing my talents with family, friends, & clients is one of my favorite things to do. The work I have done has spanned many industries & needs but has mainly focused on apparel, personal branding, & print collateral. Being a freelancer has helped me to hone my client communication skills, time management & prioritization skills, & has introduced me to the world of working with third-party printers on deliverables. 

I am very familiar with the Adobe Suite & use Photoshop & Illustrator frequently. I am also proficient in InDesign, Premier, & Lightroom, as well as all essential Microsoft apps.

I have extensive knowledge of both Klaviyo & MailChimp for email marketing. I have also used Asana for project management in previous positions. 

I have a great eye for detail, as well as excellent communication skills & a wealth of fresh ideas. I am an expert in digital storytelling, coming up with design concepts, & layout principles for web & print.

I have extensive experience in creating integrated content across multiple platforms, seasonal marketing campaigns, digital ad campaigns, & branding identity.

I graduated from Winthrop University in 2019 with a degree in Technical Theatre and a minor in Entrepreneurship. Though I did not declare Graphic Design as a major, I did take & audit many classes in the department because I was passionate about design. I also push myself to continue to take online courses & keep up with the latest trends in the design world.
