Summary

Graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design and a minor in Digital Photography from Liberty University in 2020 has provided me with a solid foundation. This academic background was supplemented by concurrent hands-on experience as a caregiver in the health field, where I consistently demonstrated empathy and professionalism in client care. Transitioning into the professional realm, I have accumulated five years of specialized expertise in graphic design, bringing depth of experience and versatility to the table. Proficient not only in marketing, graphic design, and photography, but also in project coordination, I leverage my technical proficiency and creative acumen to consistently deliver tailored solutions across a spectrum of client projects. My forte lies in crafting captivating logo designs and illustrations that deeply resonate with client identities. Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, including InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator, I extend my skills to encompass wedding photography and portraits. I adeptly utilize platforms such as Canva, Mailchimp, and prominent social media channels for effective advertising initiatives. Thriving in collaborative environments, I value teamwork and effective communication as essential elements for success, always striving to excel and contribute positively to any team effort.
