Summary

 

I am an Artist experienced in character animation. I have been taught to traditionally animate as well as in 3D programs. While I am well versed in many art related skills and aspects I also have many sales skills that help me as I try and work while pursuing my art career. Gained through a few years freelancing as a contract portrait artist. This also has included maintaining 1 on 1 relationships with clients for commissioned art throughout the past few years.

 

By far the most taxing and experience filled job was as a sales associate in Georgia. This has thrust me into the corporate world, keeping up with sales numbers, one on one sales with customers and maintaining a functioning relationship with fellow employees.  Thus providing me with the knowledge to successfully navigate retail work. As well as continued improvement with customer relations through time spent as a 4th Key Manager.

 

My main interest is in  the lighting process for films (3D and practical). I have also gained experience in painting through my time as a freelance artist. Provided in my digital portrait work and my time painting miniatures on commission. This helped me earn money as well as keeping up my skills with color, lighting and form. The time spent as a freelance artist has helped me gain experience talking to and working with customers to get them what they desire.

Experience

Freelance Artist (2013- Current)

While working with the customer I learned the steps necessary to communicate with and revise projects to fit their needs. As well as gaining more practice painting subjects under unique lighting situations.

​

Pet Supermarket Sales Associate  (March 2018- June 2020)/ 4th Key Manager (November 2019-January 2020)

Working here was my first time diving into retail. Even though I never sold anything before, my experience with various pets and products (and relevant life experience) helped me quickly adapt to the retail tasks. I earned top Food sales and VIP email sign ups consistently week to week.

​

Landscaper (2015-2016)

I was able to work well independently with little to no supervision or as a member of a professional outdoor maintenance team. Performed routine lawn and grounds maintenance tasks on a regular basis. I also adhered to predetermined landscaping designs in all maintenance tasks.
