What I'm looking for

I seek a creative role that combines hands-on graphic design and production coordination, with collaborative teams, growth opportunities, and clear project ownership.

I am a detail-oriented graphic design student and production coordinator with hands-on experience leading creative teams, managing production lines, and supporting administrative operations. I combine strong organizational skills with visual design expertise to deliver projects on time and to specification.

My background includes roles as Creative Lead, Production Team Manager, and administrative positions where I streamlined front-desk workflows, coordinated client communications, and ensured compliance with operational standards. I have led design projects from concept through final output using Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, and photography/editing tools.

I am recognized for leadership, collaboration, and a commitment to continuous improvement, maintaining high standards in safety, quality, and client satisfaction while pursuing a Bachelor's in Graphic Design.
