Hello,
I am a seasoned designer with 8 years of experience in the design and media industry, currently serving as a Graphic Designer Specialist at The Ohio State University's Office of International Affairs. In this role, I have spearheaded the complete redesign of our university website to ensure compliance with ADA regulations and have led the migration from Umbraco to Drupal, significantly enhancing accessibility and user engagement.
My passion lies in tackling complex, long-term projects that require innovative, abstract thinking, making me particularly interested in opportunities within the gaming and clean energy sectors. I thrive in environments where I can contribute to team success, whether by bringing my own creative vision or by empowering others to realize theirs through collaboration and effective organization.
Educationally, I hold a BFA in Intermedia Arts from the University of Southern California, where I graduated magna cum laude in December 2018. I have further honed my skills through a UX/UI design bootcamp at Ohio State, earning a certificate that underscores my commitment to continuous learning and professional development.
My technical proficiency spans across the Adobe Creative Cloud suite, including Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, After Effects, and Premiere Pro. I am also adept in Figma for interface design and have a solid grasp of W3C standards through Visual Studio. Additionally, I possess experience in 3D rendering with Maya and Cinema4D.
I am enthusiastic about opportunities that allow for remote work, though I am open to relocating with my family given the right circumstances. My goal is to leverage my diverse skill set and collaborative spirit to contribute to forward-thinking projects and innovative teams.
