A big part of my education at the University of Cincinnati is the co-op program. Co-op rotations alternate between school and work each semester. Here are the companies I have worked at so far.

“Frontgate is a leading home luxury multichannel retailer with catalog, ecommerce and retail operations. In September 1991, we mailed our very first catalog to 300,000 households. And though we’ve enjoyed robust growth since then, our core commitment to providing our customers with beautifully thoughtful, timeless products that hold long-term value has stayed the same. In fact, it is the single largest cornerstone on which we’ve built our business”
I was the solo graphic designer of the product development team made up of 7 in house designers, including 3 co-op students. Through this I had a lot of responsibility and obtained experience working on designs from start to finish. My work was specialized to entryway mats and pool floats with some branding projects here and there. I am proud to say I have many products coming out throughout the year of 2017.
