I am the lead designer and photographer for AMac Design, my freelance company. Since 2010, I have designed various posters, logos, brochures and apparel for a variety of companies and clients. My photography experience includes bridal shoots, weddings, family and individual photography. My experience with AMac Design has helped me to master my time and financial management skills, and over time I improved my ability to work with a team to take an idea from a concept to a final product that meets the needs of clients and exceeds their expectations.

My primary duties included, but were not limited to, checking patients in and out, scheduling existing patients, retrieving patients' medical records, corresponding with other medical practices, and assisting as needed in other areas of the clinic. On a regular basis, physicians and administrators requested graphic designs for various campaigns throughout the Comprehensive Cancer Center and I incorporated a variety of elements to meet the needs of the institution.

At III Eye Digital, LLC I was a Graphic Design Intern. My employer gave me various time-sensitive design assignments, which required the use of my time management skills in order to meet deadlines. I was also very receptive to the criticism and corrections from the client to meet their aesthetic preferences. The internship helped me to hone my communication skills so that I could understand what the client needed in order to produce a better final product. I was able to expand and develop my creative design talents by designing flyers, postcards and brochures for the company. I provided constructive criticism for my peers and team members who needed advice on assignments. Throughout my internship, I was highly motivated and always looking for the next assignment so that I could gather as much experience as I could during my limited duration.

Developed detailed computer generated specifications for each individual part of the PKI manufactured medical devices. Compiled all necessary production documents (printing plate files, barcode programs, product specification sheets, etc.) for custom design product orders.

My primary duties as a Graphic Designer at Teleflex Inc. include interacting with Graphics/Labeling Coordinators, Graphics Supervisor, and project personnel to plan, design, and create multilingual instructional manuals, product labels, packaging inserts and carton labels using various graphic design and labeling software programs. I also assist with major graphics projects from inception to completion, as well as processing day-to-day graphics artwork submissions. I create new and revised product labels (e.g. cartons, IFUs, inserts) and illustrate the products being described in an instruction manual, using graphic design programs. As a graphic designer I interact with various Teleflex departments to assure timely and accurate processing of graphic content; and work with Graphic/Labeling Coordinators to process all required translations. I am responsible for managing movement of approved/released labeling graphics to official electronic sites, and I assure that labeling graphics meet corporate labeling standards/policies and internal labeling standards.
