Paladin Los Angeles Candidate
Graphic Artist
Available For:
All types of positions.
Ideal Position:
The ideal opportunity that I am seeking is a senior level graphic artist position or something similar to it for a solid company. The position should require a lot of conceptualizing, visualization, designing and creating.
Ideal Environment:
I look for an environment that is challenging and cultivates creativity. Ideally, a company that is looking for a quality employee with great work ethic and talent, rather than the cheapest labor they can find. I am equally comfortable in a casual or corporate environment, but I have found that a less rigid work place has led to more creativity and production.
Past Experience:
I always took pride in my work and built a productive and fun relationship with my co-workers. I always learned everything I could about my job and the production process, so that I could improve either how I worked or the process itself. Most of the time, I "wore many hats" even if my title was only production artist or graphic designer.
Currently:
I just finished designing a direct mailer for a national campaign being sent to over 25,000 people. I had to think of a totally different design and theme for the company’s promotional pieces. They felt that their mailers were getting "stale" and needed a fresh new look, which I produced for them staying within their budget and deadlines.
Additional Notes:
The most important thing that you should know about me is that I'm a go getter. I am not afraid of change if it means improving one-self or the team as a whole. I am bilingual, fluent in Spanish. Besides the graphic arts, I have had extensive experience in real estate, banking and the high-end catering business.
