Worked directly with the Creative Director to rebrand the company. I started out on contract and after 6 months was brought on as salaried employee. My job entailed designing the new logo/mascot; setting up eblasts twice a week; designing new textile patterns for their custom group orders; photoshoots and uploading new products to the website. I was accountable for designing and managing digital content for the web, paid & organic marketing initiatives, and brand content. I handled all design tech packs, and any files that were sent to the factories for production. (Completed in Adobe Suit, XD, Google + Meta Ad Suite, Shopify, Klaviyo, Procreate)

Worked directly with CEO/Owner on all designs and assets for the company. As the Art Director I created tri-fold menus, product labels, in store Menu Boards for 7 different locations. I designed and wrapped their van in vinyl stickers, also produced in store designs and layout including mural paintings, menu boards, exterior store signs. A major project I did was to design and shot photos for their 200 page cook book “Plant Food is Medicine”. Remotely during COVID I was able to work remotely through emails right to the final file being sent to the printer. (Adobe Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop, Lightroom, Acrobat)

Worked with the design team to develop a seasonal product line of Moto Cross, Hallaman, and MTN Bike products. I was responsible for the designs of jerseys, pants, gloves, goggles, helmets and apparel.

We traveled to Dubai once a year where our products were made and I approved all the board samples. I organized a product photoshoot for the website and catalog. Once all 300 units were shot I designed the product catalog placing all images in and then worked with copy editor to make sure we had proper verbiage for each product.
