EXPERIENCE

Freelance graphic design — 2018-present

I consistently work with individuals and groups to create compelling designs that best suit the goals of their business, organization, or personal projects. Ranging from social media designs for a weekly podcast to letterhead design and grant applications, I have developed a wide range of skills that I continue to expand on.

Associate, Advancement; rose bowl aquatics center; pasadena, CA —May 2019-present

I design digital and print flyers, manuals, documents, and program pamphlets that are cohesive and visually appealing. I have assisted in producing fundraising campaign videos and a RBAC podcast. The content for the RBAC website and social media clearly convey information that is needed by the hundreds of patrons that visit the Center each day. In addition, I assist in writing grants, strengthening stewardship with donors, organizing development strategies, and office management.

DEsigner, Office Manager, tutor; The boutique tutor; pasadena, CA —Jan 2020-present

Initially hired to design this local Pasadena tutor’s website, I have expanded to designing and planning out teaching resources and writing packets for her students. I design social media posts that allow her to interact with parents and their children to create positive relationships. In addition, I tutor a handful of elementary grade students in writing, reading, and design skills.
