With 8 years of Marketing experience, either a team member or as a Director, my focus has always been on building brands and its outreach. Always having a creative eye and an interest in design,I decided to switch career paths and attended The Art Institute of New York City (AiNYC). My goal was to receive proper training in the graphic design field and eventually combine my marketing background with my newly acquired design skills. This goal was achieved in March 2016 and I was given the honor of Valedictorian of my graduating class.
