As a freelance designer, I liaise with clients to achieve their visual project needs. I am commissioned to produce a variety of ad hoc materials, including logo creations, paintings, merchandise designs, sneaker customizations, and social media branding. I specialize in digital art, graphic design, and multimedia.

Working as a Marketing co-op for a tech startup in the energy sector introduced me to a new world of B2B marketing. Aside from learning about all things cleantech, I was responsible for producing blog and social media assets, preparing the appropriate tasks to track leads, and assisting with the planning and execution of 3 customer-focused events. I also took ownership of the company's social accounts, focusing on storyboarding, copywriting, and the creation of a four-month content calendar. Working alongside the marketing department on monday.com, I familiarized myself with marketing automation and social media management tools, such as Hubspot and Later. Since joining the team, I successfully generated over 43,000 impressions and 5.26% total follower growth across Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn over 4 months as a result of consistent posting and community engagement. The stellar use of UGC on Facebook resulted in 38.77% of the impressions for the month it was posted. The company secured a 22% increase in Twitter engagement from May to July through consistent and relevant community engagement with a highly targeted audience.

At the beginning of my first co-op placement, I worked on various marketing and administrative duties, such as:• Prospecting event attendees• Managing social accounts• Carrying out internal and client-facing communications• Producing corporate sell sheetsFor the (remote) summer term, I corresponded with several clients to make improvements to their branded communications. As a returning co-op, I developed stronger team collaboration skills, working closely with the web developer to update our parent company's branding guidelines and give their corporate website a facelift through design layout mockups and image sourcing.By the end of my virtual work term, I trained colleagues on the latest software used to produce high-quality, AODA-compliant sales sheets and decks, taking the further initiative to draft up a resource guide for Adobe InDesign. I facilitated the process of hiring new co-ops by designing a skills assessment, arranged meetings with external vendors to develop a demo video, and produced several high-impact marketing assets for larger client accounts. As a result of this one-year internship, I honed my creative thinking abilities and adapted to quick turnaround projects, successfully equipping myself with the technical skills required for corporate design and B2B marketing.
