During my educational and professional efforts I’ve picked up on basic graphic design principles such as color scheming, balanced displays, alignment and use of effective white space. I try to use these skills in all my digital projects like social media, web design and even video/photo editing with color grading and transitioning. I am also an avid user of nearly all design software including the Adobe Suite, Office Suite, Google Suite and third party plug-ins like Krita.

Throughout my time in social spheres and the professional workplace I’ve become acquainted with nearly ever social media platform. Instagram and Facebook are my specialties, but I have worked with growing YouTube channels, designing Pinterest boards, and formatting LinkedIn profiles.
While working at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum I perfected peak traffic posting on the company Facebook page and grew our Instagram Account’s following from barely over 600 followers to over 30,000 in around a year!

Although I work largely in the digital industry, I pride myself on exceptional communication skills and a consistent yet flexible writing voice that I can apply across brands and projects. I am well versed in AP formatting, citation of nearly every kind and industry best practice for PR/Social Media/Advertising.
I’ve written for magazines, newspapers, company websites, social media platforms, blogs, daily communications responsibilities, and even legal documentation, always holding the appropriate tone and style for the task.
