ABOUT ME
I was always the kid that doodled and preferred art over academics. And when it came time to make career path decisions, all signs pointed to something creative! Fast forward a few years and I was officially a graduate from George Brown College (Toronto, Ontario), of their accredited 3 year Graphic Design program!
Fast forward another few years and I am now a seasoned Senior Level Graphic Designer/Art Director having worked professionally on both sides of the border in Canada and the US. I feel very fortunate to have built up a diverse portfolio of experience designing for packaging, digital, print and social media for several, very different industries. Most recently being a packaging designer for Infant, Toddler and Preschool toys which has been very rewarding.
Outside of my usual 9-5, I enjoy spending time with family, and flexing my creative muscles by tackling home DIY projects or creating one-of-a-kind beaded jewelry.
My family is settled in the Buffalo/Niagara Falls/Western New York region. I am actively looking for my next full-time role! My full CV of experience can be viewed on my LinkedIn profile. I look forward to connecting!
