  • Concept ideas and design for a variety of our clients
  • Manage your own time effectively to balance project deadlines with your creative process
  • Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team; participating in a peer review process
  • Coordinate with third-party vendors to see your creative vision through to completion
  • Present your work to project team members and clients
  • Deliver tidy, organized files for physical and digital media
