Summary

Over the past 7 years, I have served as a visual designer for a diverse range of clients in real estate, startups, and technology. In my current position as Senior Visual Designer at PLACE, I am responsible for creating design solutions for in-house marketing teams and various partner brands. My projects cover a wide spectrum, including the design of marketing materials for print, web, presentations, event assets, and logos. In my previous role at Doorsey as the Product and Visual Designer, I collaborated with the VP of Product to create an enterprise-level operations management systems dashboard that tracked business analytics, metrics, and users across departments. Additionally, I contributed to the marketing department by designing internal and customer-facing collateral.

As a contract designer, I assisted the Sr. Director of Marketing at Tomlinson Sothebys International Realty with updating their marketing materials. At Stay Alfred, I worked as a Graphic Designer, handling responsibilities such as designing landing pages, emails, trade-booth displays, display ads, and presentations. Notably, I oversaw major projects involving the design of over 50 unique welcome books for guests and the uploading of more than 3,000 property photographs for the new website. This experience emphasized the importance of crafting designs that address visual problems and effectively communicate brand stories for rewarding customer experiences.

While my UX Design experience is relatively limited, I have successfully undertaken challenging projects for prominent brands such as Five Guys Burgers, Black Rifle Coffee, and PlayStation. A notable accomplishment includes a graduate school project for Black Rifle Coffee where I researched and refined the customer's purchasing experience. The subsequent LinkedIn post detailing my findings gained significant traction, accumulating over 20,000 views, 120 reactions, and 29 comments. This post ultimately led to a conversation with the Director of E-commerce at Black Rifle Coffee.

I am confident that I can help your team solve challenging design problems. I possess the required qualifications, including a master's degree in User Experience Design, over seven years of visual communication design experience, expertise in UX & UI principles, product design experience, and proficiency in various design tools. I am adept at managing multiple projects, meeting deadlines, and collaborating effectively with diverse stakeholders.

Expectations
