Digital Design: Create engaging digital content such as social media graphics, website banners, email templates, and interactive multimedia presentations.
Event Design: Design event-specific materials like activations, programs, wayfinding, ads, graphics, banners, promotional items, etc.
Visual Communication: Translate complex ideas and messages into easily understandable visual formats. Simplify information into infographics, charts, and diagrams that make data and concepts more accessible to the audience.
Collaboration: Work closely with team members and clients to understand the overall goals and messages of a campaign or event to create designs that align with the broader marketing strategy.
Adaptation and Flexibility: Demonstrate ability to be adaptable and adjust design work based on client feedback, changing requirements, or unforeseen circumstances.
Innovation and Creativity: Demonstrate ability to generate innovative design concepts that capture attention and resonate with the target audience. Utilize industry best practices and current design trends and technologies to ensure the work remains fresh and relevant.

Print and Production: Ensure that printed or fabricated designs are prepared for execution and work closely with vendors to ensure the quality of the final products.
