Designer at Target
I began my design career as an assistant designer at Target. Over six years I had the opportunity to design in many categories including furniture, dinnerware, patio, and bedding. I worked in Adobe Creative Suite to provide manufacturers with design direction. My roles included surface design, illustration, style and color direction, trend forecasting, sample reviews and feedback, visual merchandising, and international factory visits. Through my tenure at Target, I was promoted to designer and was awarded 3 US Patents for designs I created.
