Summary
Hello, my name is Emily Arndt. I am a college graduate with a bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from Millersville University. I have experience with traditional art such as painting and drawing and am also knowledgeable in the Adobe Creative Suite. People would classify me as an innovator as I am able to quickly generate new ideas and concepts. Working with others in a team environment is something I enjoy. Collaborating with others almost always leads to a stronger design concept and a higher customer satisfaction rate. I am also efficient in carrying out tasks on my own while remaining flexible to accommodate sudden design changes. I am ready to be a part of your amazing team so that together, we can create both successful designs and exceed customer expectations.
