What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a creative, fast-paced role where I can design clear wayfinding and print-ready packaging, collaborate across teams, and keep improving quality using analytical methods—ideally with mentorship and room to grow.

I’m an industry-experienced packaging and graphic designer focused on wayfinding and signage that enhances user experience. I bring “prepress workflow management, quality control, and delivering projects under tight deadlines” with strong attention to detail and problem-solving.

In my current role as a Wayfinding Designer, I build comprehensive signage solutions for hospitality environments—creating 3D models, maps, icons, and layouts aligned with brand standards. I also prepare technical documentation such as signage schedules, manufacturing specifications, material breakdowns, and production requirements, and I ensure accurate placement by reviewing and interpreting architectural drawings.

Across freelance and internship work, I’ve delivered premium brand and packaging outcomes, from label designs with specialized finishes (gold-foil stamping, custom embossing) to compliant packaging artwork prepared for print. I’ve used analytical methods like the 5 Whys to reduce design errors during quality checks, and I’m eager to contribute creative solutions and fresh ideas to design innovation in dynamic environments.
