Every design I painstakingly craft is aimed at enhancing its message, captivating the viewer, and leaving a lasting impression. I'm not afraid to push the boundaries, experimenting with unique concepts and daring aesthetics that make my work stand out in a crowd. But it's not just about appearances; I understand that design has the potential to drive real results. I firmly believe that impactful design goes hand in hand with strategic thinking. By aligning my creativity with the specific goals and insights of a business and its audience, I create designs that not only catch the eye but also deliver tangible outcomes. Whether it's about boosting brand recognition, driving conversions, or even sparking a movement, I strive to make my designs purposeful and impactful. Together, let's paint a world where imagination knows no limits! #GraphicDesigner #VisualStoryteller #PassionForDesign #CreativityUnleashed ## Skills 6 capabilities[Adobe Creative Cloud](https://jobicy.com/talent/adobe-creative-cloud.md)[Asana](https://jobicy.com/talent/asana.md)[Business Strategy](https://jobicy.com/talent/business-strategy.md)[Marketing](https://jobicy.com/talent/marketing.md)[Photography](https://jobicy.com/talent/photography.md)[Video Production](https://jobicy.com/talent/video-production.md) ## Experience Career history ### Graphic Designer · Urban League of Greater Southwestern Ohio June 2021 – June 2023• Assisted in the development of the Urban League’s branding and identity across all marketing materials, both digital and print. • Created branding, marketing, and promotional materials that increased event attendance by 25% and social media engagement by 30%. • Partnered with marketing team to develop visual identity and maintain brand standards across all assets and campaigns. • Produced 50+ digital and print collateral pieces including brochures, ads, graphics, and visual web elements. • Managed project timelines and presented concepts to key stakeholders. ### Graphic Design Specialist · Cincinnati and Hamilton County Public Library April 2016 – May 2021Created visually engaging designs for the Library’s branding, signage, website, mobile app, promotional materials, and ad campaigns. • Partnered with librarians and stakeholders to conceptualize and execute over 100+ digital and print design projects on schedule. • Shot over 2,000 photos annually of events, programs, and facilities.
