To be a world-class digital designer, fashion designer, painter and printmaker. My passions include tattoo art, gourmet cooking and the video game Mortal Kombat.
Seeking internships, entry-level, or project-based opportunities to apply my advanced design and production skills using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and video editing suite. Prefer a position that affords a flexible schedule that accommodates my on-going studies at Virginia Commonwealth University.
I am in my sophmore year as a full-time student. My focuses are currently life drawing and printmaking.
PAINTING & PRINTMAKING ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
Ranked top of class in juried critique of the four major printmaking disciplines: Intaglio, Relief, Lithography and Screenprinting. Leveraged both traditional techniques and contemporary avenues such as Computer Imaging Studio to create designs and illustrations. "Best-of-Show" award (annual student competition 2006) for outstanding album cover design.
FASHION DESIGN ACCOMPLSIHMENTS:
All student-produced garments are critiqued at each step of the process and are juried by a panel of outside professionals. 21 of my garment designs have been selected and featured in the quarterly runway fashion shows.
The majority of my interests allow me to exert my true creativity by allowing me to add my own personal touches.
Photoshop skills include illustration, photo editing and manupulation.
Experience designing and lighting photo shoots for fashion shows and design applications.
I own and extensively use a Wacom tablet. Many of the designs included in my VisualCV were created using that tablet.
Fluent language skills in English, French and Spanish, both written and conversational in each language.
