Fun sells.

That’s why my goal with every ad is to make something that consumers don’t groan and ignore- their eyes are caught, their interest piqued, and their face smiling.

Whether it’s in print, on social media, or anywhere else- the common thread to any great ad is fun. So let’s make some fun together!

My Resume

Summary

I am a creative thinker with a passion for thinking up ways to make people smile. My primary design philosophy is to prioritize making my ads fun- I want consumers to enjoy my ads and I think that is the best way to convince them to buy a product or service. I am always willing to work with other creative minds to better myself and achieve results that benefit everyone.

Experiences

I’m a First Degree Senior Black Belt in Taekwondo. I practiced the martial art during middle school and high school, over about seven years. The tenets of Taekwondo - courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self control, and indomitable spirit - are values I strive to live by. Beyond the tenets, my experience with Taekwondo has made me more capable of working with groups. I would frequently guide and instruct students with a lower rank than myself, and learned to listen to and incorporate constructive criticism into my technique- a skill that has proven invaluable in all aspects of my life.

During middle school and high school I also attended a summer educational program called Duke TiP. This program allowed me to develop great adaptability to working in various environments and even more proficiency with working in groups and learning quickly.
