Creative graphic designer specializing in package design and branding.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate graphic designer with extensive experience in package design and branding. Over the years, I have honed my skills in various categories, including food, beauty, and electronics. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design from Rutgers University, which laid the foundation for my creative career.
Throughout my professional journey, I have successfully managed packaging projects from concept to completion, collaborating with production teams in China and coordinating with marketing departments. Notable achievements include designing packaging for a new line of fitness equipment and creating branding for a new baby product. My proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud and other design software has enabled me to deliver high-quality designs that resonate with target audiences.
As a freelance graphic designer, I continue to explore new creative avenues, including logo design and product photography. I thrive in environments that challenge my creativity and allow me to contribute to innovative projects. My goal is to leverage my design expertise to create impactful visual solutions that enhance brand identity.
