Experience
In-House Creative Designer, Anheuser-Busch InBev
Merged with Boathouse Beverage in October 2016
In-House Creative Designer, May 2015–October 2017
Working solely on SpikedSeltzer, a craft beer brand within the High-End Group, I lead the brand in all product and lifestyle photography. While working closely with the public relations and the social media team, I created post ready files to ensure that the brand’s identity remained authentic and visually engaging on Facebook and Instagram. While staying current on application updates, as well as social and cultural trends, I influenced how the brand was presented visually on social media leading in a 90% increase in following since May 2015.
Along side my digital work, I worked closely with the marketing team to provide print ready files ranging from sell-sheets and event materials to updated packaging, prodcut development and a brand graphics manual. I managed the distribution of the brand’s visual assets to 550+ beer wholesalers nation wide.
Sacred Heart University
Artist Assistant, September 2012–April 2013
I assisted Artist/Professor Nathan Lewis in creating a commissioned mural for the University. I worked primarily in a demanding photo shoot environment where I learned what equipment is needed for proper lighting and staging, and most importantly, how to use a camera. I also worked extensively with Photoshop, silhouetting the 100+ figures seen in the painting.
