Hello,
I have over 17 years of experience in UX/UI and graphic design ranging from front-end web development such as custom microsites, websites and HTML emails to creating marketing materials, campaigns, social media ads and infographics for businesses. I have extensive working knowledge of HTML5, CSS, content management systems, email marketing, social media and typography. I have advanced software skills in Microsoft Office including SharePoint and PowerPoint as well as Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, XD and Dreamweaver.
My experience demonstrates my aptitude to accomplish graphic and digital design jobs successfully. I am confident that my experience combined with an intense will to succeed, ability to quickly grasp new knowledge and team player would allow me to make positive and valuable contributions to your company. My previous experience has allowed me to develop effective leadership, motivational, training and customer service skills. These jobs have demanded performance under stressful conditions and accurate problem solving, therefore, increasing my potential to accept difficult challenges and more responsibility.
I am passionate about building websites and creating graphics. As a designer, it is my job to bring your vision to reality. My focus is to provide outstanding design solutions that would grow your company and provide success.
Below are a few examples of my designs and web projects I have completed over my career. To get a closer look of any of my designs, just click on the image.
I have worked professionally as a web and graphic desinger for over 17 years and continuously study, read and complete online learning programs to stay abreast on the latest in design and coding. I consider myself a creative who loves to design and code.
I can provide strategic creative design in branding, marketing, infographics, web and campaigns.
Build for every platform.
Informative print design and production.
Grow your business organically.
Creating an image around your product/service.
Get direct response.
Create smart and elegant presentations.
From logos to web layouts, I will take on any task to provide stunning quality designs. My goal is to listen, observe and understand your desire outcome and bring that outcome to life.
Each project is unique, but I follow these simple steps.
I first meet and listen to key stackholders to ensure all the important details are captured about the project. Your story becomes the basis for my work. Together, we’ll set long-term goals for your marketing needs. I then research competitors and design traits of your industry to help inspire original ideas of my design decisions.
Using research I gathered, I will begin working on creative ideas to achieve your goals. Depending on the project, the development stage may involve sketching out thumbnails, mockups or graphic elements. Larger and more significant projects, like logo development and web design, may require more fine-tuning and several iterations before moving into design.
Whether it’s web or graphic design, I will use best practices and work with you to finalize the project. I will provide working designs and take you through the process of how I made specific aesthetic decisions, answering questions along the way.
When all designs are finalized and approved, I facilitate launching the assets in the appropriate formats. I provide you with continued support to ensure a continued consistency through all your marketing efforts.
I am a highly motivated and hard working individual aspiring to be sucessful in the web and graphic design world. I am a fast learner, forward-thinker and a team player.
My work experience has provided me an opportunity to master many skills which could be very valuable to your organization.
