Having an attentive nature yet remaining intuitive in thought allows me to be experimental, mix funk with structure, and be concisely exuberant as a designer. I define my style as eclectic and keep in mind that, “Design is the search for a magical balance between business and art; art and craft; intuition and reason; concept and detail; playfulness and formality; client and designer; designer and printer; and printer and public.” (Valerie Pettis). I like to merge design components, mediums, styles, approaches, applications, and software's, while incorporating influences from historical periods and human/environmental conditions. I tend to be an additive designer who plays with process and concept according to specific project scopes and requirements. --- **Employment and project experience** **Artist & Director of Logistics** @ Suzanne Allen Studio _Summer 2018 - Current_ > Responsible for overseeing and planning logistics for a creative decorative painting studio focused on being environmentally conscious. > Manage website and act as in-house graphic designer for print materials, pattern creation, project layouts & specifications and social media materials. **Photo Editor** @ Debose Photography Studio _Summer 2017 - Current_ > Process and produce a high volume of orders by batching, editing, templeting, printing, and shipping. > Created and manage workflow system for multiple remote editors used when order volume increases. > Train new employees on workflow management, editing procedures and maintaining equipment. **Graphics & Pre-press Specialist** @ Miller Imaging & Digital Solutions _Summer 2016 - Spring 2017_ > Produced and prepared files for high quality printed and scanned graphic images in fine art, large format and small press. > Manage production supplies, equipment, and software needed for high volume downtown print shop. **Graphic Designer I** @ BOXX Technologies _Fall 2014 - Winter 2016_ > Responsible for creating print and web graphics for the marketing department including t-shirts, icons, banners, web ads, trade show materials (stand-up banners, flyers, promotional assets), product manuals, spec sheets, informational flyers/whitepapers, corporate brochures and magazines. > Managed weekly e-blasts, monthly print ads in POST, Desktop Engineering, AUGI and other industry specific publications. > During my time as the in-house designer, growth in revenue rose 13% and growth in web orders revenue rose 121%. **Graphics & Web Designer** @ Sherman Associates LLC _Fall 2013 - Spring 2014_ > Creation and development of new logo, website, and advertisement materials for architectural firm. > Initiated and executed an updated and cohesive office system by digitizing and organizing project materials including plans, photography and project details. --- **Education** **BA in Graphic Design Communications** @ Roger Williams University _Minors in Anthropology & Sociology_…Having an attentive nature yet remaining intuitive in thought allows me to be experimental, mix funk with structure, and be concisely exuberant as a designer.
