Hello! I'm a design professional with 10+ years of experience in web and graphic design. Recently, I've focused on digital design projects like ads, e-books, e-commerce UX, emails, infographics, and websites. Additionally, I've produced several print projects ranging from advertisements, brochures, business cards, flyers, large-format banners, posters, and product branding.


Experience

Lead Frontend Developer

Greyphin Industries, LLC

While working from home as the sole frontend developer, I interfaced regularly and remotely with the rest of my development team. Together we produced extensive e-commerce sites from the ground up that regularly integrate with a host of third-party services. We also launched a number of sites for small businesses to expand their potential customer reach and give them a suitable presence on the web where previously they had none. Greyphin also allowed me to expand my marketing and advertising knowledge by asking me to contribute regularly to weekly strategizing meetings. I was also asked to use my skills in graphic design to produce various digital assets like infographics, e-books, ads, and social media graphics.

March 2020 - May 2022

Creative Director

Identity Media Group

I produced print and web graphics for various industries including retail chains, restaurants, real estate companies, manufacturers, and specialized B2B markets - all with amazing success. Our print deliverables ranged from large-format posters and banners to menus, brochures, product labels, catalogs, stickers, business cards, and flyers. I also single-handedly monitored customer support across email, phone, and live chat channels of communication for three separate industry e-commerce sites simultaneously.

January 2016 - January 2020

UI/UX Developer

Fuel

I lead a team of talented web designers and developers in creating and maintaining responsive websites for various clients in the hospitality industries. I was able to hone my skills in responsive web design and I became familiar with the mobile-first methodology and the concept of progressive enhancement. I communicated with employees on a daily basis and worked to complete tasks in a timely manner.
