Work with clients to develop a consistent brand from their logo to packaging to trade-shows. Developing effective brands that speaks for themselves.

I work closely with my clients to organized and manage different projects across the country. I have worked with a variety of companies on projects that vary from websites,
user interface design, ipad apps, wedding invitations,and trademarks.

Design a variety of different projects based on the needs of our clients. Most of the work is done for AT&T and according to their brand standards. Types of design include: Truck decals, Brochures, Posters, Websites, Trademarks, and a variety of other mediums.

Transfered into marketing and began to develop not only collateral for our company but also for a our sister company, NJ Solar Power, and our holding company, VisEnergy. Some of my responsibilities included website designs for our sister company and holding company, multiple brochures, powerpoint presentations, direct mail pieces, 20x20 trade-show booth, 10x20 trade-show booth, stationary sets, business cards, and a variety of other collateral and projects. I really enjoy the collaboration between my marketing director and I. I enjoy the challenge of all the different types of projects I am allowed to create in.

Designed kiosk/ websites for a variety of clients: from local middle schools to HSBC (Vancouver). Each kiosk was designed to monitor the energy usage in each individual building. Each kiosk was designed according to the clients identity system. I was responsible for the look and feel of the online site as well as the interaction of the user.

I was also responsible for training and supervising three interns as the implemented my designs.

Also I was taking on the challenge starting up a marketing department alongside another co-worker. We worked together to create a strategy on how to market our company. We began with a complete new branding identity in January 2010 and moved into redesigning our website, all of collateral, internal documentation, brochures, diagrams, etc. In all of our projects I collaborated with the Director of Marketing on messaging and direction of the piece visually.

Took the graphics developed by the graphic designer and developed them into a live working touchscreen/ website. Also designed graphics for the kiosk.

Worked alongside various clients on a variety of projects. I did multiply logo designs and symbol set designs. Worked on 2-4 brochures for local church groups. I also worked closely with a client on doing a redesign of their event called "Run the Reagan." For this project I worked on multiple different designs and then presented 2 different options to them in a final meeting. The two different concepts included not only a logo design but t-shirt, water bottle, brochure, and signage. The design chosen was then displayed before over 200 people every year.

Some of the mediums I was able to work in were: packaging design, website design, identity design, and trade-show design. I really learned a lot about trade-show design through this experience. We designed a trade-show the size of a small house and I was amazed by all the components it takes. I loved collaborating with the 3 other designers. I think it is truly important to always have someone you can bounce ideas off of.
