I am a project manager + designer living in Los Angeles! I have had the joy of working with clients across many different industries on a wide range of projects including pitch decks, public art projects, book design and layout, city signage, editorial illustrations, merchandise design, social media campaigns, as well as album art and poster design. Over the past seven years of full-time freelance work, I have learned how to navigate heavy project loads, effectively manage timelines and budgets, communicate with stakeholders, and collaborate with team members. I love to learn new skillsets and have recently acquired a Project Management Certification with Agile through Pathstream, which has only fueled my excitement for developing systems that empower projects and team members to flourish. I hope you will keep me in mind as your creative and project management needs arise! Some highlights include: - Managed four-month project overseeing 35 students and their research, one professor, as well as SCP and Metro Transit stakeholders to create a fully illustrated lightrail train car (interior + exterior) in celebration of Earth Day, on-budget and on-schedule; positive passenger response kept the train running five months beyond original timeline.-Managed and designed 18 short animated videos and one four-minute animated video project for an upcoming social media campaign using the Adobe Creative Suite, Dropbox, and Google Workspace for communication and project scheduling and updates; completed within six months on time and within budget.-Managed four-month project overseeing 60 students, two professors, and SCP stakeholders to create published pollinator guide; successfully acquired by Mississippi Watershed and the Walker Art Center.Clients include: Rivian Automotive, Marico, GoMacro, University of St Thomas, Minneapolis Public Works, Metro Transit, Climate Crisis Hub, Gardener Elementary School, Terra Movement, Brooklyn Art Library, Rebelution, Teddy Swims, Semisonic, Timber Wolf Alliance, + more
