ABOUT ME
I am a motivated designer and dedicated team player with a versatile skill set and tenacious work ethic. I earned a bachelor’s degree from Ramapo College of New Jersey in Communication Arts, with a concentration in Visual Communication Design. In addition, I studied Front-End Web Development at Fullstack Academy of Code. I'm currently employed as a Creative Lead at Stryker.
I possess expert knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, and Acrobat, as well as Figma and the coding languages HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I am particularly skilled in photo editing and retouching, designing within brand identity guidelines, and proofreading. I pride myself on meticulous attention to detail, exceptional organizational skills, and the ability to create innovative design solutions.
