GRAPHIC DESIGN

Due to being the one-woman-band communications and marketing staffer in many places, I developed some intermediate graphic design skills. Most of these samples were for social media, film fundraising and promotions or conference flyers.

I can develop content from scratch or from templates on stock sites. I was using Canva before Canva was cool! (Since 2016!) I can also utilize Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop, InDesign and many more programs. While having a professional graphic designer on my team is ideal, I am able to fill in gaps and produce content when needed! 

ALSO: I created this website myself in Wix and manage all of the content. I try to keep the design simple so that the content, especially my video projects, can POP. I can also use Wordpress or Squarespace, including handling accessibility, donation widgets, storefront / retail integrations, sign up forms, etc., plus analyze the site traffic and manage SEO.
