Parfums GivenchySenior Designer
Nov. 2006 - Mar. 2009New York, NYMy experience at Parfums Givenchy and Guerlain Paris can be summed up with providing high quality design within a high pace environment. The position called for someone to provide art direction for photography of seasonal promotions and to be solely responsible for the graphic design of all printed collateral pieces pertaining to fragrance, makeup and skin care. All projects shared the goals of supporting national advertising directives from France, U.S. marketing and national in-store / special makeup events. Remaining well versed in file pre-press, mechanical creation and production was a must and a skill I feel most designers lack. While reporting to a creative director, autonomous art direction was necessary as well as being able to manage, host and maintain a weekly inter-department meeting regarding the creative job calendar.

Visiting members from our French office recognized this directive in their worldwide market and created a similar educational tool. Selecting and maintaining visual rights and photography guidelines of brand imagery in these respective store environments was part of the position, as well as, creating scale drawings for the entire product line in Illustrator which was used in a schematic database. While at Dior, I was part of a group structural re-design of our brand within Sephora.
