      I am working for ZIV (means glow, check out their website for full meaning) and I am so excited. I am treading new waters while being responsive to client needs. This is my first agency job and I love it! I can’t wait to keep growing with this company! I am working for ZIV (means glow, check out their website for full meaning) and I am so excited.

      FREELANCE CREATIVE DWIGHT SCHRUTE | hey-apro 03.04 and BEYOND If you love the office, I am a total Dwight, wxcept for I don’t care much about beets, bears, or Battlestar Galactica. I care about discovery, details, and design. I recently began working with AltCap, an amazing non-profit connecting entrepreneurs with loans and funding to grow their businesses during the recent recession and pandemic. I have made print collateral for their expansion to Houston, TX, and Los Angeles, CA. I created a brand for Gloss Rx, a high end boutique spa for medical grade anti-aging procedures and skin care, and Rx Packaging that provides tamper proof discreet packaging for medical marijuana dispensaries newly opened in Missouri, as well as Samsara Temple, a yoga temple startup in the Kansas City area with a unique and new vision. I have also worked on sales collateral for Paterini and associates, bringing quality gifts to gift shops in the Lawrence, KS region and beyond.
