Savannah Nagy
@savannahnagy
Creative director with expertise in visual storytelling and design.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated Creative Director, I have successfully led teams in producing compelling visual content that resonates with audiences. My experience at The Daily Gamecock involved directing over 150 individuals in the Photo and Design teams, where I conceptualized and executed layouts for a 40-page monthly News Magazine, significantly boosting readership retention and enhancing brand perception.
My journey in design has been marked by a commitment to innovation and collaboration. At Garnet & Black Magazine, I established the visual identity of the organization and transformed traditional print media into interactive digital experiences using Augmented Reality. Additionally, my role as a Co-Instructor at The University of South Carolina allowed me to share my knowledge of design principles with aspiring Public Relations students, fostering a new generation of creative thinkers.
