About Me.

As a graphic designer, I enjoy the process of converting messages through design. In my work, I strive to both form a connection to either myself or my past to help convey meaningful topics and themes to make it easier for people to connect. I aim to never stop learning and gaining experience in design to be able to keep improving. Raising awareness of non-mainstream issues through my design has always been a goal.

​

With a minor in studio art, I was able to enhance my illustration and photography skills through classes of Photography, Drawing, Printmaking, and Oil Painting. While in these classes, I explored how graphic design and studio art practices and mediums could mix and interact with each other.

As the graphic design intern, I handle multiple different projects. Most projects were promotional materials: multi-size posters, social media posts, tv slides, and professor uses in Canvas, for online courses. Some other projects included: updates to graphics for grant proposals, in-college holiday cards, social media posts for holidays and more, tv slides, custom graphics for recruitment, and more. I used a variety of skills from typography, motion effects, photo editing, and illustration to complete projects.
