I have worked as a Graphic Artist since 2005, wearing many hats in the design industry. From being a Template Designer, copying logos, to being a Pressman, in 2006, I landed my first job at a design agency. I worked with 10 different companies, handling 30 different tasks simultaneously. During this time, I not only honed my design skills but also developed new skills such as client communication, working under multiple deadlines, and collaborating with teams in fast-paced environments. From there, I transitioned into package design for the auto parts industry. As a car enthusiast, I was eager to start this work. I learned package design, car photography, and product photography, stripping out images for an over 200-page catalog. The real reward was seeing my designs in stores. Subsequently, I joined the Girl Scouts of San Gorgonio, where I learned much about corporate design, staying on brand, and ensuring others did the same. Here, I refined my skills in print design, including posters, brochures, stationery, business cards, postcards, and other promotional items. I also worked on motion graphics, social media, and video projects, and served as the main event photographer, taking headshots of staff and Gold Award Girls each year. Afterward, I moved to PepsiCo, working with brands like Rockstar, Gatorade, Aquafina, Brisk, and Mountain Dew, and all the sub-brands within the company. One of the most exciting projects was creating graphics for the Super Bowl and seeing my posters and artwork in the world.
My experiences as a designer have been amazing. I have learned so much from the diverse types of jobs I’ve held and the people I’ve worked with, trained, and learned under. I have become a better communicator, worked within multiple departments, and ensured brand consistency. I have collaborated with company owners, CEOs, and top designers.
I believe my experience has made me a well-rounded individual and someone who can problem-solve, adapt, and figure things out, whether working as part of a group or independently. I look forward to my next experience as a designer or any other job opportunity that comes my way.
