my bfa in visual and performing arts set the stage for a creative career, but i wanted some additional training to push me to a more influential career. when i was younger, i always had a fascination with art and graphic design. i joined several programs to refine my public speaking and leadership skills. i was able to learn to speak publicly for a crowd of about 100 and was offered several job shadow opportunities. following behind men and women in many positions, i was able to meet the design team for a few large companies in atlanta, including old navy and turner broadcasting system.

i have studied color theory and design principles, fine art media, and freelancing skills. while completing my undergrad, i participated in weekly critiques to showcase my strengths and weaknesses.

during my time as a waitress, i was able to gain skills by offering customer service and support, and training of all front-of-house staff. i believe working in the food industry has helped me to develop patience and the ability to pay close attention to minor details. i am a multitasker. i am encouraging. i am compassionate.

you can find me on linkedIn, twitter, facebook or instagram, or you can reach me via email.
