INTERPERSONAL SKILLS

Interests

I am a seasoned Graphic Designer with a Diploma in Multimedia Design & Communications from the Applied Multimedia Training Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, complemented by a Marketing and Sales Management Certificate from the University of Regina’s Professional Development program.

Throughout my career, I’ve built a diverse portfolio through roles in the film, print, and public sectors. I spent eight years in the film industry with Partners in Motion, a Regina-based production company, followed by six years in the print industry at Western Litho Printers, and seven years in the Marketing & Communications unit at Regina Public Library. Most recently, I’ve been a freelance multimedia designer and the creator and publisher of Paw Quarterly Magazine.

SKILLS

I have worked with the Adobe Creative Cloud, Microsoft Office and Office 365 applications on both Mac and PC platforms.

I gained my knowledge through working with both print and digital media. I have designed and produced marketing materials, published catalogues and magazines, general advertising, as well as, digital formats for use on TV monitors, digital advertising, web, and social media applications.
