About
With a robust background in design and technology, I hold a Bachelor of Information and Technology in Interactive Multimedia and Design from Carleton University and an Advanced Diploma in Information Technology from Algonquin College. My career began as a Multimedia Designer, where I honed my skills in illustration and graphic design for a diverse clientele. I then advanced to Creative Lead at PencilFresh, overseeing creative projects and managing design teams. At Wave HQ, I played a pivotal role as a Senior Designer, leading a comprehensive rebrand and web migration project, which earned a Webflow award for technical achievement. Currently, I am a Senior Brand Designer at 7shifts, where I lead front-end website design and develop marketing assets. My expertise spans creating and expanding design systems, project management, and enhancing brand marketing strategies.
