About
Creativity is my passion… I love what I do and excel at it! Within the past 10+ years, my creative journey has included art-directing photo shoots for Universal Orlando’s Resort, managing a team of designers at Scholastic Book Fairs, and developing proposal graphics for the successfully awarded $8B opportunity at Lockheed Martin.
Working in collaborative in-house marketing environments and global Fortune 500 companies have provided me with a strong foundation in print, digital, and visual marketing. As a skilled designer and strategic thinker, I generate compelling creative solutions across various media channels. I meet project milestones without delay and within budget. I also possess strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to quickly translate key technical information into compelling graphics. With the introduction of new technologies and the growing number of media platforms, I’m elevating my skill set by learning UX/UI, video, animation, and web design.
I’m a problem solver and a strategic thinker. I have excellent communication skills and collaborate well with others. I can manage multiple jobs and multitask very well. I bring fresh, new ideas to the table. I have the experience and meet almost all the criteria you seek for this position. I’m a candidate who can not only meet your needs now, but also be valuable for where Universal wants to go in the future. I’m driven to deliver high quality work and innovative creative design. And finally, I’m passionate about my work and the industry. -
