Background

About Christopher Snell

With a passion for digital media and a background in traditional 2-D animation, I started on my digital journey after graduating from the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) in 2006. I have always thrived on using my creative mind and strong visual imagination to effectively communicate messages through compelling visuals. Seeking to expand my skill set, I pursued further education at The Art Institute of Atlanta (AIA) from 2008 to 2011, where I acquired expertise in Web Design and Graphic Design. Combining the knowledge gained from SCAD and AIA, I founded my own freelance digital media design firm, Snell Designs, in the fall of 2008. At Snell Designs, I leveraged original concepts to create captivating digital assets for multimedia and graphic projects, spanning websites, print collateral, advertising, animation, emails, logo design, and interactive displays. This experience allowed me to nurture a deep understanding of client requirements and consistently deliver innovative solutions that exceeded expectations. In 2011, my career in Digital Media officially took off when I joined AutoTrader.com as a Digital Media Designer. Subsequently, I explored the other side of digital media by transitioning to a role as a Web Project Coordinator for YP from 2013 to 2016. This opportunity provided me with a fresh perspective and ignited a newfound passion for digital marketing. Since 2016, I have been actively engaged in consultative roles as a Digital Ad Operations Manager, Account Executive, and Digital Strategist. Currently serving as a Digital Performance Manager, I have honed my ability to collect and analyze data, craft compelling narratives using analytics, and develop strategic plans that consistently drive measurable results for a diverse client base. I thrive in cross-functional environments, utilizing my exceptional interpersonal skills to align external clients and internal teams toward shared objectives. My unwavering attention to detail, commitment to outstanding customer service, and proven analytical problem-solving abilities have consistently driven sales and profitability for my company and clients. I am motivated by the opportunity to tackle new challenges and continuously push boundaries. The biggest lesson I have learned, both personally and professionally, is that one's response to failure determines their capacity for success.
