Dedicated graphic designer with extensive retail experience and customer service skills.
What I'm looking for
Hi, I’m Allison Langis, a graduate of the Graphic Design Advanced Diploma program at Conestoga College in Kitchener, ON. With about five years of experience in retail, I have developed a strong passion for working in environments where I can express my creativity while sharing my knowledge about brands I love. My journey has allowed me to take on various roles, from Assistant Manager to Graphic Design Intern, where I honed my skills in customer service, sales, and design.
In my current role as Assistant Manager, I successfully handle customer complaints and implement solutions to enhance the retail experience. I have consistently achieved sales targets, helping elevate our store's performance from a C volume to a B volume store. My experience as a Graphic Design Intern further enriched my skill set, allowing me to conceptualize product designs and assist in creative direction during photo shoots. I thrive in team settings, boosting morale and leading by example to ensure our goals are met.
