● Departmental Liaison: Serve as a bridge between the Art department and Interdepartamental processing, ensuring packaging artwork, print proofs, material specifications, and vendor revisions align before production kickoff.

 

● Trend Research: Track current design trends in retail and consumer goods to introduce fresh styles, layouts, and visual concepts. 

 

● Presentations & Mockups: Develop realistic 2D/3D product mockups and clean design presentations for internal reviews and retail buyers.
