Job Responsibilities
TO CHANGE [Ever since my first step into the office, I have done nothing but learn, grow, and expand my design and marketing abilities. Initially, due to an incredible mentor, I was able to gain an entirely new perspective on design and the software used, but more importantly the confidence to eventually step up and lead the marketing team creatively. Since being responsible for creative, I have learned how to mentor others, build deeper professional relationships with those outside of our company, and truly label myself as a corporate professional.]
