Experienced Senior Graphic Designer with a passion for impactful design.
What I'm looking for
As a Senior Graphic Designer at the American Library Association, I have honed my skills in creating compelling visual communications that support the mission of the organization. My role involves collaborating with 11 divisions to develop logos, branding, and product designs that resonate with our audience. I take pride in producing a variety of print materials, including posters, mailers, and trade show designs, ensuring that each piece effectively communicates our message.
In addition to my work at ALA, I have a successful freelance design practice where I partner with clients to understand their unique design needs. My experience as a Technical Director of Communications for Selected Independent Funeral Homes allowed me to enhance my skills in website design and content management, ensuring that our digital presence was both user-friendly and visually appealing. I am dedicated to delivering high-quality design solutions that not only meet client expectations but also elevate their brand identity.
