AC Moore
May 2017- present
At AC Moore, I am a sales associate and cashier. When working on the floor, I help assist customers to find materials for their craft projects, as well as suggest what would work well with their budget and intention. While working at an arts and crafts store, my creative mindset as an artist is continuously growing. I become more inspired as an artist and hope to radiate my creative ideas to customers as they do to me.
Good Design
September- December 2017
At Good Design, I was granted with experience that taught me how to be a graphic designer in a professional, real world setting. I had the opportunity to create multiple spark page mini websites for Greenwich Academy, as well as a motion graphic to promote the firm. While working as an intern, I was motivated to use time management and organizational skills to satisfy my co-designers and their clients.
