• Freelance Designer/Production Artist

  • Dec 2016 - Dec 2020

  I have worked Contract for Creative Circle Since December of 2016. I was on a long term assignment with Clean Harbors/Safety-Kleen in Richardson Tx until my position was eliminated due to Covid-19 Pandemic. Since then I have done a few short-term assignments but nothing permanent. My role at CLH-Safety-Kleen was varied, I was tasked with building the master packaging files for the first retail offering in a premium re-refined lubricants market. This required approvals from multiple specialized licensing divisions and following industry standards to create a system that made revisions easier and more accurate by pulling label production in-house. I was awarded the design for the 2018 SK Motorsports annual calendar as well as the 2018 Annual report. Show less

  With Monkey Tag, I was brought on to start and staff the Production Department for the small agency.

Unfortunately the bulk of the production work was pulled from the agency and the department never materialized.
