Experience
For four years, I thrived as the Senior Graphic Designer and Marketing Specialist at FSU College of Medicine. During this time, I developed logo guide templates, crafted compelling marketing materials, and ensured social media graphics were sized appropriately. My dedication was recognized with a promotion to Senior Graphic Designer and Marketing Specialist. Additionally, I supported the production team with video and event photography.
Driven by a desire to expand my marketing expertise, I embarked on a Master's degree during my time at FSU. In August 2023, I graduated from FSU's College of Communication and Information with a Master's in Professional Communication, specializing in Integrated Marketing Communication.
Current Role
Currently, I use my skills as a Graphic Designer at BCA Architects & Engineers, a full service architecture/engineer firm spanning seven locations across Upstate New York. My role involves a mix of graphic design and marketing. I prepare and design project proposals and collaborate with the lead graphic designer and the Director of Business Development to build marketing strategies.
Passion for Design
My passion for graphic design lies in transforming textual information into visually captivating and mission-aligned materials. I love seeing the design evolve the more I work on it.
I love to do graphic design work on the side for fun, as a freelancer. If you are interested in working with me please feel free to contact me. I would love to bring your ideas to life!
