Professional Experience

I am a Web Designer, Graphic Designer, Artist, Illustrator, and Webmaster with over 10 years experience. I am an alumna of the Fashion Institute of Technology, and have worked over 10 years in the fashion and web industry, catering to NYC and surrounding area clients. I have created web art, graphics of many kinds including landing pages, e-blasts, banners, icons, and page layouts. I have also managed and maintained websites. I designed print artwork including screenprints, embroideries, apparel graphics, brochures, flyers, postcards, and business cards. I am proficient with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Dreamweaver, coding with HTML and CSS, and also love to create freehand illustrations. My favorite styles use lots of fun colors and textures. Markets I target are tween, teen, and young adults. My favorite industries to design for are fashion, teen girls, kids, and women. If you are interested in hiring me, please send me an email!
