POSITION OVERVIEW

I am a graphic designer on a team of four where my daily duties span from Illustration to print collateral creation, from designing and coding websites to designing and testing marketing emails, and just about everything in between.

Each person on my team brings a great wealth of knowledge and experience. As a mid-level to senior designer, my skills and experience are utilized daily. As a very collaborative team, we come together on the work we do. Generally in this team environment, we all get the opportunity to work on a great variety of different projects and there is a lot of communication involved at every step of the project. Though we all have our strengths. I specifically enjoy designing/coding on the web and take great joy in making webpages and landing pages come to life.

FUN FACTS

WELLNESS IS IN OUR DNA

Every year, the Health & Wellness Committee plans and organizes the Summer Wellness Challenge. This challenge is to get employees moving and tracking not only their steps, but other fun activities during an 8-week period. Each year a charity (or two) is also selected and the steps are calculated into donations.

For the past four or so years, I have been tasked with creating an engaging and fun logo/brand for the website where employees enter in their steps and track their exercise. Each year I use the overall theme to create these logos. It's a really fun project and I love participating. It is also an opportunity for me to stretch some design muscle (which includes some branding practice.)
