In May 2018, I graduated from St. Cloud State University with Summa Cum Laude. I received a B.S. in Mass Communications emphasizing in Advertising and a minor in Graphic Design. I am now currently working as a server at Crave. I have been exploring my career aspirations by looking for jobs on Indeed and LinkedIn, but I have not come across a job offer yet. I’m excited to see what’s next!

Last semester I helped a former professor, from St. Cloud State University, build a website. I helped him with content editing and website structuring, while also teaching him how to use WordPress. He had never used WordPress before, so I taught him some of the things I learned in class and on my own time. After creating his website, I helped him promote it over LinkedIn and Facebook.

His website is about Criminology-Theology Connection. Make sure to check it out!

I just finished my final project for my typography class. We had to make two posters for an event that we chose, along with a brochure. This is what I came up with:

Today in class I created a rough draft of an event poster. We had to pick an event that is going on at the Walker Art Center. I picked the event “Cultures in the Park.” Here is a rough draft of what I have so far. I am going to play around with the title and put it more towards the side of the poster.

Today at my internship I’ve been working on a tri-fold brochure for Fred’s Heating & AC. They provided a sample of a brochure that they wanted to mimic. It is not completed yet; I am planning on adding a message from the owner in the red box and applying a white gradient at the bottom of the box. Here is what it looks like so far:

 

 

 

 

 

Today in class we had to pick a character from a movie who we liked. I picked Edward Cullen from the Twilight series. After we picked the image we had to create a typography mask. We had to lay text over the face, so that the end product would just be text. We had 2 hours to do so. This is what I came up with.

 

Hello everyone- I am undergoing a website change! This website was initially used as a class project, but I will now be using it as my online portfolio. I will be blogging about how my internship is going, while also posting the projects that I have completed. Can’t wait to start creating this website.
