I've been a freelance graphic designer for since 2007. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame with a B.A. Graphic Design in 2000, where I was a full-scholarship volleyball player (inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2000). Then earned my MBA in 2007. I work solo from my home of which I have a husband, a 6 year old daughter and a Chorkie pup, named Odie, who was born on May 30th, 2020.
As a designer, I come from a background of quick paced and deadline driven work. I am efficient and am able to multitask many projects at the same time. I always will work closely with client(s) and it’s project team or marketing departments.
Today, most of my clients are within the Chicagoland area but I have clients based all around the U.S and one in Italy. I am passionate about what I do, I am disciplined, and I enjoy working hard. I feel my purpose in this world is to help others and to facilitate love, happiness and support. I fulfill this passion by building relationships through creative design, problem solving and my ability to bring the ideas of others to life.
On of my favorite things about being a freelance designer is the ability to interact directly with my clients and build a lasting relationship with them by being just a phone call or email away. I actually still work closely with the first agency that hired me out of college.Typically, I work so closely with each client, most of them end up giving me my own business card and email, under their company, to act seamlessly on their behalf.
Feel free to contact me if you've got something in the works and want to collaborate. I'm always interested in talking about new projects and opportunities. I can be reached by email, phone, text, smoke signals, messenger pigeons, and sky-writing. I prefer the first three methods though.
