Education

Associates Graphic DesignThe Art Institute of New York City2009 - 2011Graduated in 2011 with an Associate of Occupational Studies in Graphic Design from The Art Institute of New York City. My studies focused on branding, typography, digital illustration, packaging, and layout design. I developed strong technical skills in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) and completed hands-on projects that emphasized both creativity and real world application. Since graduating, I've continued refining my skills through freelance work and self-directed projects, including launching Cre8ive Mystique, a creative design and virtual assistant service, and Soul Mystique Collective, a print-on-demand brand. These ventures have given me valuable experience in visual branding and client collaboration, preparing me for an entry-level role where I can grow, contribute, and bring creative ideas to life.
