Experience
ArtHouse Design, Denver, CO
March 2007 to June 2010
Environmental Graphic Design
I was part of a small design team that created concepts and developed
designs for interior and exterior environmental graphics. This included ADA
and wayfinding signage systems, large format graphics, exterior monuments,
and donor recognition displays. I created scaled construction intent
drawings and prepared documentation for the competitive bid process. I
assisted in management of the competitive bid process through fabrication
management and final installation punch list.
I interacted on a daily basis with clients, vendors, fabricators, and other
members of the project team. This included meeting with architects,
developers, and clients both on and off site to coordinate project details.
Our team also created logo designs and identity development for new and
existing companies. I was responsible for print production of branding
collateral and
marketing materials for our clients as well as in house promotional
materials.
