What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a creative role where I can lead branding and packaging projects, produce production-ready assets, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and grow into larger creative leadership responsibilities.

I am a tech-obsessed creative director and graphic designer with over five years of professional experience crafting print and digital marketing materials across industries including travel, aviation, pet products, and promotional marketing.

I have led rebranding projects, packaging design, website and social graphics, promotional assets, and print collateral—working on campaigns for retail channels (Amazon, Chewy, Walmart, Target, Shopify) and enterprise clients like Marriott Vacations Worldwide and private aviation services.

I consistently deliver precise, production-ready files and integrated visual solutions using Adobe Creative Cloud, Wordpress, and industry tools, and I thrive on collaborating with teams to meet brand goals and tight deadlines.
