Work Experience

Founder & Chief Design Officer at 1992 Design & Co.
March 8, 2021 - January 20, 2026
As Founder and Chief Design Officer at 1992 Design & Co., I worked on graphic design projects that bridge digital and print, with a strong focus on structure, precision, and technical quality. My work involved creating and adapting Adobe Illustrator files using consistent templates, grids, and visual systems across different media. I handled both print and digital deliverables, taking care of layout organization, typography, visual hierarchy, and file preparation for production or publication. In both contexts, close attention to detail and strict adherence to technical specifications were essential. I worked independently, followed defined workflows, documentation, and internal tutorials, and ensured that all deliverables were clean, consistent, and technically accurate, whether for professional printing or digital use.
