Apr 2017 - Jun 2018
I began as a junior graphic designer and I worked for two companys, both owned by the same owner, Lazer e Aventura Shop and Náutica Gold Fish. It was my first opportunity as a legitimate designer at a mid-sized company. Lazer e Aventura Shop has an ecommerce, These are the 4 main products they sell; fishing, airsoft, camping and archery products. While at Náutica Gold Fish, they have an informational site, their focus was selling within the store, They sell jet skis, fishing boats and speed boats. I worked in the Marketing department as a graphic designer. Common activities were; creation of key visual, visual identity for campaigns, unfolding print and digital content for campaigns, large scale stickers, billboards, organic and paid social media content (Facebook and Instagram), monthly social media planning, icons and banners for their website. I also had my first experience re-designing my first e-commerce, It was an excellent experience and learning opportunity for UI/UX.

Aug 2016 - Feb 2017
I left my last job, to finally begin working on the career I love. It was for an e-commerce called Criart Shop, The main service they offered was personalized medals, trophies and plaques. Each one had to attend to each client's visual identity. I learned about printing large quantities, how a project can be printed on various types of papers, different densities and how different materials interact with each other. The most interesting experience, by far, was, working with a laser cutter, learning how to prepare a .DXF file, small details about how the machine operates and best practices. I also learned so much about the digital side of the industry, I learned about product production, retouching photographs, social media content, banners and icons for e-commerce. All of it was a great learning experience.

Cashier, Credit analyst, Debt Collector and Sales
-
Dec 2012 - Mar 2016
I began as a cashier, and quickly excelled in my duties. Then I received an offer to be promoted to the credit analyst role, I learned a great deal. One of the daily activities was debt collection. I quickly discovered I had an aptitude for a debt collector position. One day, that same position opened up at the parent company, My boss at the time asked if I was interested. I was very interested and was promoted once again to that role. After a long time, I became more interested in sales, I asked my manager at the time if he would give me an opportunity in sales, He gave me the opportunity, and it was the best choice I made. I really enjoyed working with sales, and I'll always be grateful for my manager believing in me.
