Grace G’s Summary
With 7 years experience in design of printed materials I'm currently looking to use my skills to break into other office-oriented fields such as ad-sales and marketing or web-design. My biggest goal is to become a valuable long-term team-member in a mid-to-large size company.
In web, my ideal position is to become a paid-intern to start for web-search-optimized conscious designers or Creative/Art Directors while simultaneously working on print-oriented design as well in order to become a full-time staff member. This is because today, some businesses and even some designers are not aware that they cannot be found online as easily if they depended solely on programs such as Flash for web-design in order to put their web-address out there when googled.
In ad-sales, I am hoping to find a mentor who would show me the ins-and-outs of being the bread and butter of a company, on the road to becoming a long-term team member.
