RGD Certified – Registered Graphic Designer
BACKGROUNDAs a graphic designer and creative consultant, I work with brands from all over the world. I help my clients achieve business goals by using design and branding as a platform to reach an audience. My experience in these areas allows me to deliver an integrated solution for my clients. I’m from Toronto, Canada, and I studied graphic design at George Brown College’s School of Design and brand management at Seneca College.
EXPERIENCEMy experience is drawn from working for B2B and B2C companies, both on the agency and client side, including being a co-founder and marketing director for an electronic tech start-up company. Earlier in my career, I had a stint in São Paulo, Brazil as an art director where I worked on national campaigns for Brazilian brands.
I’ve also had the incredible opportunity to teach and develop courses related to design and brand marketing at Humber College, Yorkville University, and Toronto Film School. It was here that I shared my knowledge and experience of the industry and helped prepare students for the workforce while teaching them management, strategy and technical skills to succeed.
METHODOLOGYFor more comprehensive projects such as brand strategy or a marketing campaign, my process includes working with the client to identify their objectives while figuring out positioning and messaging. Then formulating a comprehensive integrated marketing plan, tailored to your company to help you achieve your goals.
My design work is supported through a brand auditing process and reviewing your competitors. Not all design projects require a strategy process, I can work with your previous findings or use existing design assets to work on your design projects. I strive to grow with my clients and build long-term partnerships with them.
MOTIVATIONI’ve worked on various start-up brands for family, friends and clients and seen them grow into larger companies. As a certified member of the Registered Graphic Design Association, I keep up to date with design trends and marketing strategies by staying connected with the industry, taking courses, and participating in events and seminars regularly.
