I am a recent graduate of Clemson University's College of Business and Behavioral Science where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Graphic Communications with a minor in Business Administration. I am originally from Boca Raton, Florida, but have recently relocated to Charleston, South Carolina. I chose the Graphics Communications program at Clemson because of my interest in the graphic arts, production, and marketing industries. This interest initially stemmed from a specialized drafting and design prep program I underwent in high school.
During my time at Clemson, I completed two industry internships which have opened my eyes to the professional world of Graphic Communications and other related fields. In the summer of 2014, I interned for Campus Banner + Design, a student run print and production business on Clemson's campus. During my time at Campus Banner, I designed and produced a number of large format print jobs, learned more about pre-press procedures, and gained valuable customer service skills. From January-July of 2015, I worked as a design intern for Packaging Corporation of America. I worked closely with graphic and structural designers to conceptualize and produce product packaging, point of purchase displays, and retail innovations as well as learned new skills such as product rendering and 3D design.
Since graduation, I have begun to narrow my focus to digital marketing, specifically search engine optimization and pay per click advertising.
