I graduated from the Illinois Institute of Art - Schaumburg with a bachelor's degree in Web Design and Interactive Media. Though my studies focused on front end development and UX/UI, the groundwork for successful design, regardless of medium, was laid during my time there.From 2015-2016, I was a UX/UI Designer for CGN Global, where I created initial wireframes and designed e-Commerce websites based on UX research, competitive analysis, architecture, and overall strategy. I spent the past seven and a half years(2016-2024) at Fox Outdoor Products in Melrose Park, Illinois as the Creative Director, Lead Designer, and Web Master. I was in charge and responsible for planning, designing, and delivering all the company's print and digital marketing materials, branding standards, photography direction, annual catalogs, product packaging, web design, and content management. Along with this, I was also tasked with a variety of other less frequent roles like motion graphics, video editing, storyboarding, product development, internal training, and customer support. My time at Fox not only allowed me to enhance my design skills but taught me how to wear multiple hats while taking on new design and management challenges.At the end of the day, I enjoy solving challenges through design and creativity while working on successful and driven teams.
