The No Fear
Shakespeare Version:
I currently work at Laundry Service as a Senior Art Director. I’ve worked on Papa John’s, Skagen, Michelob, Hilton, European Wax Center and KIND Snacks. Yes, lots of free pizza, a free watch, some beer, one hotel stay and a wax pass. Yes, I love free things.
I worked at R/GA New York as a Junior Art Director on Samsung. Designed a lot of things. Concepted a lot of things. Spent 6 days in Barcelona filming 6 videos and spent 4 more eating tapas and drinking wine.
I interned at Saatchi LA, making Snapchat filters for Toyota's Lollapalooza collaboration and working on an art installation for the Mirai. Then I got to drive the Mirai. Still unsure why they trusted me with a $60,000 car.
I interned at VacationStyle. I was the sole graphic designer and marketer on the team, building the brand and creating social campaigns for a start-up website. I spent most of my time dreaming about being able to afford vacation.
I interned at Eric Mower and Associates. I designed and wrote copy for an internal environmentally conscious print campaign. I designed OOH's and brochures for non-profits. I developed a love for socially conscious work and “saving the environment by printing ads on paper.”
I went to high school. 4.0 GPA, valedictorian. I went to Syracuse University. 3.85 GPA, not exactly valedictorian. Honors. Dean's List. Remembrance Scholar. Crown Wise Award Winner. Studied abroad in Madrid. I took a class at Harvard University this spring in Sustainable Business Strategy. I love school.
I did things outside of school. Resident advising. Volunteer coordinating for Gamma Phi Beta. PR/Marketing for OttoTHON. Directing advertising for a short film, "Fever." Took a lot of naps.
I have some skills. The Creative Suite (Cloud?). Microsoft Word. PowerPoint. Keynote. After Effects. Website design and AEM components. Social Media (says the millennial). Proficient in Spanish. More proficient in English.
