I currently hold over 10 years of experience in graphic design, UX/UI, photography, video production / editing and animation. I also have extensive experience in several content management systems, including Adobe Enterprise Management, Wordpress, Drupal and Oracle.
Throughout my professional career, I have worked in several different industries, including the top surgical technology company, small to mid-sized design firms and have formed two start-up companies, including an apparel printing/design and a freelance design business.
