Freelance Graphic Designer

Creative & Design

Hi, I'm Kristy and I'm a graphic designer. Many of the projects I’ve completed have included working as part of a team, working with other departments, meeting various deadlines, and working in fast paced environments. Some tasks that were included in these projects were: preliminary research of the topic, mood boards, sketches, color studies, type studies, logos, trend research, product development, and the development of corporate identity. I work well as part of a group or individually and believe deadlines and time management are crucial for success. Apparel design has always been my main focus of interest. Most recently, I worked as an in-line graphic designer for Fanatics as part of the MLB: Nike Brands team. I assisted in launching the Fanatics MLB/Nike partnership by creating cutting edge sportswear designs that were unveiled to the public for the 2020 season. I look forward to expanding my knowledge of design even further and continuing to excel in my artwork.

Create on-trend, original designs for college and resort apparel; Set up concept approval sheets; Set up design templates for easy conversion; Create production files.
