Communications Specialist
Greater Atlanta Area
During my several years at the Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division headquarters, I adapted to many different responsibilities.I regularly produced graphics and prepared printed products, organizing thousands of assets and creating hundreds more. (Logos, brochures, booklets, posters, signs, letterhead, keychains, hats, t-shirts, office nameplates, etc.) Often, I made these products in-house, using my production skills and agency equipment. I also partnered with many outside vendors to ensure outstanding results.When the agency needed photography, I supplied. I staged numerous photo shoots each year, including several for the cover of the Georgia hunting regulations. Where necessary, I retouched and color-corrected photos. I even enhanced artworks featured on four Georgia license plates used to support the agency.I handled large amounts of data, finding ways to improve agency operations. I helped consolidate the tracking of patrons and sponsors for our largest agency fundraiser—Weekend for Wildlife. I also maintained the event’s brand, which updated annually. The event logos I created won two national awards.
