I am a designer who has helped start-up companies meet their basic needs and have their own identity when pursuing clientele online.
I love working with 3D renderings and animations, and I use design software to give my work a professional touch.
My most memorable experience has been working with Twitch streamers, who started with no avatars or artwork.
I completed my associate degree in graphic design in the fall of 2024 and began pursuing a bachelor's degree in January 2025, with an expected graduation in Spring 2026.
Education
Apple Valley High School - Diploma in 2009
Once classes became available in my junior year, I began taking photography and Photoshop classes. My Photoshop course would tie into bringing my work into Adobe Flash to make cartoon animations.
In my senior year, I started taking courses on Cinema 4D, along with Audio production, where I would work with ProTools, Logic, and Ableton Live to add sounds to video, and also basic music production.
Rasmussen University - Associate Degree in 2024
The college taught me how to use many Adobe software I was unfamiliar with; InDesign, Illustrator, Dimensions, XD, and Dreamweaver. The classes expanded my knowledge into Photoshop and Premiere and 3D rendering as well.
The associate degree was completed while obtaining Dean's List / Honor Roll certificates for each quarter completed.
I had projects that were praised for the effort, and was asked if they could be shared throughout the faculty.
LinkedIn Learning Courses
During my associate degree, we were recommended to watch certain courses to help our skills. There were other courses I have taken that have helped me explore and learn how to be better at what I want to do.
Here are some of the completed courses as of 09/2024;
-Adobe XD Essential Training Design 2020
-After Effects Principles of Motion Graphics
-Learning Cinema 4d
-Motion Graphics for Social Media
-Practical HTML for No Coders
-Marketing to Humans
-Visual Communication for Business
My Next Steps?
As of January 2025, my classes to obtain a bachelor's degree in graphic design have begun. Expected graduation of June 2026.
