Background

About Lara Qureshi

I have extensive experience working for marketing agencies: from design and production to project management. I have worked with major retail clients managing print and creative production as well as digital marketing. My associates depend on my attention to detail and preciseness of visual consistency. I am an expert in the Adobe Suite applications and have experience using project management applications. I currently work at PureRed as a Creative Services manager. My experience as a designer combined with my ability to lead and manage high volume marketing jobs led to my position, managing projects for a national drugstore. I oversee the work flow between the creative team and accounts team, keeping projects on schedule, prioritizing and directing creative to make sure client objectives are met. Previously, I worked as the primary designer and production specialist for BevMo! for several years. I worked directly and consistently with their creative agency, marketing team, printers, designers and product managers. BevMo! grew from 25 stores to over 150 stores while I worked as their primary graphics specialist. My job required me to follow directives from creative briefs, designing promotional material ranging from in-store signage to direct mail to labels for internal brands. BevMo! counted on me to organize and archive digital assets for all of their marketing teams. I am an effective manager, able to pivot & problem-solve in fast-paced environment. I am organized and continuously look for ways to improve processes for increased team efficiency. My visual and oral communication skills come naturally to me. I have always worked well on a team or independently and thrive in positions where I can learn, grow and be challenged.
