Venice, Ca

I wan an intern at PUSH Offices in sunny Venice Beach, California. I had the opportunity to grow as a designer, learn about the cutting edge of UX/UI design, and work with clients that are at the top of their fields. I've worked on both User Interface projects as well as over-arcing general branding campaigns.

I started as a design intern my Junior year of college, and by the middle of my Senior year I was given the opportunity to step into an art director position. Along with redesigning the visual identity of our program, I made everything from event posters to billboards to advertising campaigns. Along with design, I was involved with social media and street team events.

I run both the business and design aspect of the company in terms of bookkeeping, promoting, and designing the clothes

I designed advertisements for local clients around Grand Rapids for publication in the Grand Valley's newspaper, The Lanthorn. I also designed various posters for promotion and made icons for a mobile app.

I worked in the advertising department creating newspaper ads for companies that were interested in putting ads in the Lansing State Journal
