For more than 13 years at Charmellow, I've been instrumental in crafting concepts, original artwork, campaign collateral, websites, and branding packages for a diverse array of clients. As a solo operator, I efficiently handle multiple projects, deadlines, and daily meetings, ensuring clients stay on course. My track record includes the successful delivery of hundreds of projects, such as advertisements featured in major publications like Rolling Stone and Forbes, album covers, custom limited edition apparel, internal career mapping, music festival collateral, corporate rebranding, and various projects involving confidential information. I offer a distinctive perspective in creative problem-solving, delivering robust solutions tailored to the unique needs of a wide range of clients.

I've been the creative force behind numerous assets for Lead Star and its clientele, successfully delivering course collateral, special projects, website graphics, email marketing designs and collateral, presentation graphics, social media marketing materials, and information graphics—all punctually and with an unwavering commitment to top-notch design standards. Taking charge of the Lead Star brand, I meticulously uphold consistency in fonts, colors, logos, and placement across all branded materials. Additionally, I ensure adherence to the client's brand design, producing assets that align seamlessly with their brand guidelines and standards. Managing a diverse array of projects concurrently, I consistently meet deadlines without compromising on the high level of quality expected. Lead Star's extensive client roster, spanning from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies, relies on their proven leadership coaching services.

Since 2014, I've collaborated with Greensky Bluegrass, contributing to a range of production design, promotion design, and apparel design projects. Notably, in 2018, when the band initiated their music festival, I played a key role in extending their new branding and incorporating the existing festival identity across all printed festival materials. My commitment to providing graphic design support remains steadfast, addressing the band's diverse advertising requirements throughout their tour seasons.

I assisted in rebranding hundreds of pieces of Lifespeak, Inc.'s sales collateral - updating the brand design of all five of their product brands. I continue to provide graphic design support for other client's rebrands and collateral designs.

In 2018, I assumed the role of Art Fair Coordinator for the Cadillac Festival of the Arts Phyllis Olson Art Fair, organized by Up North Arts. This festival, a cornerstone event for the Cadillac community with a rich 52-year history, entrusted me with various responsibilities. As the coordinator, I oversaw the coordination of artists, managed applications and jurors, and played a pivotal role in creating cohesive marketing and design strategies over the year-long planning timeframe. Additionally, I reported progress and budgets to the board of directors while driving forward the Festival's activities.While the in-person festival in 2020 had to be canceled due to COVID-19, my volunteer team and I pivoted to craft a week-long virtual festival on Facebook. This innovative approach supported 12 music artists, engaged 7 local restaurants, and organized a community-wide chalk art contest with prizes from the local art shop. Beyond coordination and marketing, I leveraged my graphic design and illustration skills to enhance the overall visual identity of the festival and successfully grew the online audience year after year.

I served as a Graphic Designer at Weaver, a dynamic publication design company, where I played a pivotal role in the creation of over 80 visitors guides and meeting planner guides annually. Juggling up to 6 publications simultaneously, I demonstrated proficiency in Graphic Design, Publication Design, and Web Design. My responsibilities extended to web design, banner ads, and the development of an interactive online meeting planner. Notably, in 2010, I produced a motion graphics piece using After Effects CS5 for the California State Tourism RFP.Some of the prominent projects I contributed to during my tenure include the Austin, Texas Official Visitors Guides and Meeting Planner Guide (2009-2010), the New Orleans Official Visitors Guide (2010), the Columbia, South Carolina Official Visitors Guide and Meeting Planner Guide (2009-2010), the Colorado Official State Tourism Map (2007-2009), and the Colorado Scenic and Historic Byways Guides (2008, 2 guides).In addition to these, I provided support for various Official Visitors Guides or Meeting Planner guides, including those for Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Jacksonville, Florida, Chicago, San Diego, Anaheim/Orange County, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas, Vancouver BC, Wyoming Official State Guide, and contributed to the Colorado Official State Vacation Guide from 2007-2010.
