Resume
I am a multidisciplinary Graphic Designer, Multimedia Designer and Product Designer with extensive experience in Art Direction, Marketing, E-commerce and Fashion. I have worked with many small and start up businesses and understand how a company works from the ground up. I have worked with multi-million dollar businesses and know how to market to a local and international consumer.
My unique background in Fine Art and Apparel, Textiles, and Merchandising have given me a natural eye for design, product, and marketing.
