Motorola Solutions, Inc.
2009 - Present, Graphic Designer
At Motorola, I have supported the Global Brand team through the company’s separation to help develop and establish new branding, while continuing to support team members across all businesses to understand the new brand and update their marketing tools. Working in both print and web, I provide designs for brand identity, internal communications, advertising, collateral and events.

Freelance Graphic Design
2009 - Present
As a freelance designer, I have been working with small businesses to not only improve their brand, but to also help them find better ways to make their marketing tools work better for their business and customer base. Working on a one-on-one basis, I’ve also helped my clients brainstorm ideas and narrow down direct plans of action for marketing, business strategy, and communication, and then provide designs or technology to support those ideas.

2006 - 2009, Creative Manager & Lead Designer
As Creative Manager I organized all incoming design needs and managed the workload, progress and creative direction of all designers within the company. My role as a designer allowed me to not only produce online and print pieces to support the in-house branding and marketing needs, but also support the creative needs of advertisers and clients. My role also included creating an art direction for projects such as magazines, websites, catalogs, event & shows, advertising campaigns, apparel, and marketing collateral.
