Summary

I'm a compassionate and driven designer who iswell-versed in the creative industry. Adept at developing effective lesson plans, maintaining positive relationships with colleagues, and learning from accomplished designers from the past to be inspired. This will enhance and improve my digital skills, allowing me to take my body of work to the next level. The result will take me places that validate opportunities to tick off my checklist to becoming a preferred creator. In the creative industry, pressure is the number one force that most designers of all backgrounds face at a certain point. I found this exertion beneficial since I can work under pressure using problem-solving skills to overcome any challenging obstacles in the workplace.
