About Desiree Slaughter

I'm a passionate, multi-talented creative who never stops learning! I can proudly say that over 85% of my education comes from my passion for learning more in all my experiences, not alone from the mind-melding lectures in a classroom. With 20 years of work experience, I have been fortunate to have held various positions across a range of industries that have allowed me to cultivate a skill set that makes me adaptable to many opportunities. I can take on a project alone from concept to completion, but I also have experience working as part of a team in varying sizes from 1 to many. My work experience includes- 15 years of experience in the design field covering graphic design (print & digital), web design and development, brand design & strategy, mobile application development, UI design, and more - 8 years of programming experience, including HTML/XHTML, CSS, Javascript, Python, Java, and more - 9 years of marketing experience, including social media marketing, content marketing, digital campaigns, public relations and communications, event coordination, and marketing strategy - 12 years of customer service experience, covering technical support, call centers, client relations, sales, customer retention, fundraising, receptionists, account management, and others - 7 years of experience in clerical work, including administrative assistance, personal assistance, executive assistance, and project management - 13 years of experience in the food & beverage industry, including serving, hosting, bartending, banquets, and catering Branding, Web Design, Tech, and Digital Strategy are my passions, and I am eager to refine and expand my knowledge and skill set whenever the opportunity arises. My life motto is:"I don't just create, I create me!" because not only am I a "creativepreneur" that strives to build a thriving creative empire, I also strive to create and give the best version of me in so that I do. I believe that it is essential to love doing what you do, and I spend some time doing what I love every day. As you may or may not know, being a millennial and growing up with social media, I spend a lot of my time in several online communities and on personal profiles. Stay up-to-date on what's happening in my world and current events on my Facebook Page, follow my daily thoughts and commentary on Twitter, see the world through my eyes on Instagram with daily adventure vlogs and photos, and get inspired by my pins on Pinterest. With my obsession to dominate the Internet market for my name, you can pretty much find me on any site as @desimslaughter.
