Hi, I’m Shivonne
(It’s pronounced shi-vawn if you’re wondering)
I’m a versatile senior level designer/art director with agency, in‑house and freelance experience. I’ve had the privilege to design work for major clients in consumer packaged goods, consumer electronics, and financial services and have created work for both business-to-business and business-to-consumer assignments. I’m able to switch easily between brands and am well versed in following client brand guidelines. My agency experience has provided me with a great variety of projects in print, experiential, and digital design. I’ve also been responsible for preparing final files for print production, reviewing/approving proofs, attending press checks, and working closely with print vendors to get the best results.
