Karen S. | Paladin Atlanta Candidate
Art Director/Senior Graphic Designer (print and web) with Corporate and Agency Experience
Available For:
All types of positions.
Ideal Position:
I am looking for a challenging position where I can make a difference using my design skills, innovative thinking, creative leadership and project management skills. My ideal position would be in print/web design as an Art Director, Senior Graphic Designer or Creative Services Manager. I enjoy leading creative teams and developing concepts. I enjoy being part of an in-house creative team. I prefer an open environment where the creative staff can easily bounce ideas off of each other.
Past Experience:
I have worked for several in-house marketing and communication groups as a Senior Graphic Designer and Art Director. I have worked on a wide variety of projects that include designing for print and web, meeting with clients, leading creative teams, developing concepts, creating web graphics, establishing branded products and managing projects.
Currently:
The most recent project I worked on was re-branding the Retirement Group's 401(k) communication pieces for one of the world’s leading wealth management, capital markets and advisory companies. I helped to establish the look and feel, develop the design standards and create templates for quick production turn-around. The new brand helped to attract more people to the Retirement Group's services. Qualities that help make me an outstanding designer include being a self-starter, detail-oriented and an expert in multitasking. I have a dedicated work ethic that always allows me to finish projects on time and honor commitments to clients, as well as to my colleagues. Not to mention my proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite 3.
