Experience  

Freelance Designer- March 2009-Present

 
This marks my first leap into designing professionally and out of a team environment.  During this period I was lucky enough to work on projects for Georgia Power’s Emergency Response Team, creating the concept, and later designing the logo to be used for G.P.E.R.T.  I have also designed a brochure for a local and well respected artist and business owner, Melissa Gregory.  She was the featured Artist at a local art exhibit that I designed the brochure for.  Both of these projects helped me gain valuable knowledge and experience towards deadlines and maintaining a professional and creative attitude, as well as the opportunity to put my skills and passion for graphic design to work.  I also came up with the concept and design for Walsh Lacko Racing’s logo for their tee-shirts and hats. I just recently created a logo for City Employee's Credit Union.
