About
With a Bachelor of Arts in Design and Visual Communications from St. Francis College, I have honed my skills in graphic design and web administration. My experience includes managing websites, creating graphic assets, and deploying updates for Sound Collective. At Atlys, I collaborated with branding experts and developers to translate client needs into design strategies. As a Student Worker at St. Francis College, I designed graphics and managed social media platforms for the Department of Mission, Ministry, and Interfaith Dialogue. My proficiency in Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, and After Effects, along with my knowledge of HTML, CSS, and PHP, has allowed me to create impactful visual content and effectively manage web projects. I am passionate about leveraging design to enhance user experiences and communicate brand messages effectively.
