Currently seeking work within a professional community. I have been responsible for the creative design of advertising for new clients. I have continued work with established designs & direction from previous designers. I have worked under the direction of an Art Director, Advertising Director & Publisher. I am fluent in Public Relations departments, handling client relations and promotions of a company.

Independent Design & Layout: 40%
Receiving Direction: 20%
Creative Direction: 20%
Client Relations: 20%

This broad spectrum of independent & directive direction, has established my career. Team leadership and being a vital part of a creative team is essential to a progressive creative department.

I have worked freelance with Real Estate, Universities, and Architectural firms. For the Real Estate company I completed an advertising poster for the company. For the University, I created a logo and graphic, for visual representation of the new program that they are offering. I am as well an on-call designer for a Network Administrator, which occasionally comes across a client that is in need of creative direction, as well as identity development.

After graduation of The Illinois Institute of Art-Chicago, I was hired as a production artist for a monthly music-advertising magazine. During my year and a half with the company, I was promoted to Designer and Public Relations team management. While working with this outstanding team of young and established individuals, I was able to lead our group into promotion within a new level of society. Gaining experience by working with the Chicago Blues Festival for marketing and The Illinois State Library Department of Archives. These experiences led me to branching out on my own to bring my experience and education to small and large companies in need of marketing and design consultation.

For five+ years I was an Administrative Assistant, with several office and official managerial duties. Receiving the skills to communicate with professional industries.

I feel that these experiences have accelerated my ability to communicate effectively with industry professionals as well as members of an existing collaborative working team.

I have completed four years of college with special interest in art history and typography including psychology. I received my Associates of Graphic Design Degree. Print Design is the medium that I work within, as this is what I do and know best. I have the communicative skills to bring to a full scale design team, of television, web, and mass production companies.





"I am a visionary in many people's eyes — able to think outside of the box to come up with my own solutions. I am creative, not necessarily in the artistic sense, but because I can expand my mind to do things differently from others." - Tickle Test Observation
