Hi Hello Friends! My name is Emma, I am a senior interactive designer with 3 years of experience in email marketing and design; plus an additional 6 years of printing and graphic design knowledge. My educational and work background in print media, combined with my knowledge and experience of modern web design principles give me a unique and enthusiastic approach to email and digital media design.
I get excited about opportunities where I’m able to:
» Work with designers and engineers who are passionate about the work they do
» Learning new client branding and always pushing the boundaries in designs
» Play with the latest design software tools such as Adobe XD or Procreate
» Geek out about new design trends and have team building creative activities
I thrive working in collaborative environments with designers, product managers, and developers; working as a team to create a cohesive process. I’m also a self-sufficient, eager worker and fast learner who can work independently and complete tasks under pressure.
When I’m not working… I love to cook, sing musicals and listen to true crime podcasts with my two cats, Ozzie & Boo!
