Digital Designer, 09/2018–Present
CSG Creative reached out to me to fill their digital designer role. Here I own/manage the digital media strategy for 40+ clients in the B2B trade show industry. I focus on offerings like website UI design, front-end web development, animation, heuristics evaluations, and user testing to help boost event attendee and exhibitor registrations.
Freelancer, 09/2008–08/2018
For ten years, I created logos and visual identities, print and web graphics, and websites for B2C and B2B small businesses, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs. I drove projects from brief to presentation to execution and delivery of creative concepts. While I no longer freelance, it taught me how to problem-solve in time-sensitive moments and/or within strict budgets.
Director of Digital & Graphic Services, 06/2016–09/2016
I completed an intense, 100+hr/wk short-term job contract to design logo, set art direction, and create and launch a website for the 2017 Texas State Society Black Tie & Boots Presidential Inaugural Ball and other events.
Communications Coordinator (Design), 08/2015–08/2016
