What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role where I can leverage my design skills, contribute to creative projects, and grow within a collaborative team environment.

As a dedicated graphic designer, I have honed my skills through a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Communication from Edna Manley College. My journey began with a strong academic foundation, where I consistently excelled in various subjects, earning awards for my performance. I have a keen eye for detail and a passion for creating compelling visual narratives.

Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience working with reputable organizations such as Continental Baking Company and Signs Jamaica, where I contributed to innovative design projects. My proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects, allows me to bring ideas to life and deliver high-quality results. I am also committed to continuous learning and growth in the field of graphic design.
