Kirin Knapp Email & Phone Number

Lexington, Kentucky Area

Mainly responsible for new concept design and special projects. Print, web, and illustration.

Contract/freelance illustration and design. From hand to digitally drawn and manipulated art.

I am a full-time Graphic Designer. I primarily design vector and photo-real screen prints for major brands like Ford, Mountain Dew, and MLB, but I also work on presentations and catalogs for all of our products. I work hard and have fun while doing it!

Working full-time remotely, I was responsible for managing my time, communicating clearly via email, and completing projects in a timely manner. These projects included general graphic design, and more specifically web design, print layout, icon design, illustration, animation, and email newsletter templates.

In a fast-paced environment, project and time management were very important. I performed many tasks while working for DecoArt. Some of these were: print layout, web design, logo design, package design, illustration, photography, animation, and video filming/editing. In addition to the designs themselves, printing and assembling mock-ups and signs for trade shows were very common.

In a vast network of websites, I was responsible for designing new sites as well as re-designing the old. To accompany the sites I also designed matching email newsletters. In addition to these, I designed ads, wrote online tutorials for Photoshop, and also wrote content for several of the sites.

I was given story excerpts and direction for illustrations needed for books, bulletin board sets, and also simple flash animations for websites.

As a shift supervisor, I was responsible for money, all of the baristas on duty, and any challenges in a customer service atmosphere. Having strong multitasking and interpersonal skills are a necessity in this fast-paced environment.
