Work history

Las Vegas

My career started in 2014 when I landed an internship with a sign company, creating branding components for their franchises. At the time I was a student at The Art Institute. I would later be hired as a full-time designer at the same company and work there until I transferred to the Chicago campus. This job helped me build the fundamentals I needed to know for building my career.

Chicago

After graduating in 2017, I worked for a bedding company and mostly created package design for their products. I would occasionally do product photography as well as create graphics for their website. The company was bought out and I would continue my career as a graphic designer and web designer in the Chicago land area up until 2024. I got to work on a lot of great projects and in doing so, I would perfect my design skills along the way.

Greece

In 2022 I moved to Greece. The company I left was a vehicle wrap design shop. I was there in total, 5 years. I would say that I grew the most at this job. I oversaw my own projects, deadlines, and installations. I became even more organized, creative and efficient with my work. After moving to Greece, I have built websites for this company as well as other companies. Working remotely was a big change, but I have become accustomed to loving it!
