  I'm responsible for the design, product photography, complex photo retouching and color correcting for one of the largest retail stores on the East coast. I am tasked with creating complex campaign elements for various product lines prior to them going on sale along with designing store displays and large wall/window graphics. I’ll take raw images and make them look believable in the environment and create the clients ideas into the proper look and feel and also keep their brand in check. I work with clients on workspaces within iMeetCentral, that keep track of their work, proofs and any communications about their projects. Clients and Sales will come to me when there are difficult campaign elements that need to be handled because I can keep track of all the parts and how they fit together. I create Direct Mail packages for this same retailer along with other clients and also deal with large databases. Show less

  My design tasks included 16 unique, quarterly health magazines. Independence Blue Cross, one of the largest health care providers, was the client of 9 versions of those quarterly magazines. I was in charge of designing each of those versions. The other publications are for more independent entities within the healthcare field. They came to me with their design needs and I worked every day to meet their demand. My design tasks included 16 unique, quarterly health magazines.
