Nathan Santiago

I'm a creative and detail-oriented Marketing graduate with hands-on experience in social media coordination, digitalcontent creation, and brand storytelling. My passion lies in building engaging digital experiences that not only capture attention but reflect the heart of a brand. During my time as a Marketing & Graphic Design Intern at Illest/Fatlace, I developed digital assets for campaigns across
platforms like Instagram and TikTok, helped manage content calendars, and collaborated with a creative team to bring visual ideas to life. I’m confident using tools like Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Canva, and Google Workspace, and I’ve developed a sharp eye for visual design, layout, and trends that resonate with diverse audiences. In addition to my creative work, my background in high-paced roles at Thermo Fisher Scientific and Target taught me the importance of precision, organization, and team communication—skills I bring into every marketing project I take on. Whether supporting a product launch, planning content for a brand campaign, or ensuring cross-platform consistency, I thrive in environments where creativity meets strategy. I'm especially excited about opportunities that blend storytelling with data, helping brands grow communities, not just followings.
Let’s connect if you’re looking for someone who’s not only fluent in hashtags and metrics but genuinely cares about building meaningful digital experiences.

I have experience in both marketing and operations roles. I previously worked as a Marketing/Graphic Design Intern at Illest/Fatlace, where I created digital graphics, supported social media campaigns, and helped maintain brand visuals using Adobe Creative Suite. I also have several years of operational experience at Thermo Fisher Scientific, where I have held roles including Receiving Specialist, Life Safety Equipment Specialist, and Glass Wash Specialist, supporting laboratory operations, inventory management, compliance inspections, and cross-team coordination in a regulated environment.

I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Marketing from California State University, East Bay, where I developed a strong foundation in marketing strategy, consumer behavior, and digital marketing. My coursework included projects focused on market research, branding, and marketing analytics, which helped me build practical skills in campaign planning and data-driven decision making.
