In truth, the position is multimedia design as the projects I tackle are across print, digital, animation, video, and standard static designs. I routinely juggle multiple deadlines for deliverables including, but not limited to, marketing emails, social media posts, B2B graphics, in-store signage, package designs, and product photography. I leverage concrete knowledge of design principles and free thinking creative mindset to craft the most effective visuals that fit the brand's image and specific requirements for the project. I also take advantage of the resources in both the design community and my coworkers to push past creative blocks. If I am not designing original designs, I am evaluating previously created artwork from our supplier to ensure it continues to match the in-house copy and that the information is up to date to allow it to be imported into the country.

I was a graphic designer brought on to supplement a group of web designers. My strong comprehension of graphic design software and principles was desired to create graphics that could be used on the websites that Partnership Erie made as well as external applications such as social media. An assignment always started with research into the company so I could identify the market they inhabit as well as their mission.

My strong comprehension of graphic design software and principles was desired to create graphics that could be used on the websites that Partnership Erie made as well as external applications such as social media. An assignment always started with research into the company so I could identify the market they inhabit as well as their mission. From there, I would determine appropriate colors, imagery, and type wherever requirements were not filled in already by the client. I would prototype a handful of logos with 1-3 being taken further with more variations before presenting what I had done to my supervisor. I then made sure to articulate my design choices to foster an understanding between my methodology and the expectations set. Show less

Here I responded to a flyer looking to get my feet wet in the design world. When I was accepted into the position, I met with the Editor-in-Chief to define exactly what they were looking for in a new website so both parties would be satisfied in the end.

The content management system had already been chosen for me due to their existing subscription so I focused on how I would design in the space I had been given. Taking into account the affiliation with the Pennsylvania State University, I crafted a more spacious and easy to read experience with the classic white and blue colors of the school. After the site was deployed, I switched to a manager role where I monitored the website and week by week kept it up to date with newly published news stories. An assistant was onboarded and trained by me to help in especially busy times as the timely distribution of news was paramount. Show less
