Background

About Steve T.

As a visual communications designer, I bring extensive experience in print, web, motion graphics, audio post-production, and professional presentations. I understand the power of research in crafting clear, compelling messages that resonate with audiences. By applying fundamental design principles, I ensure that each project is not only visually engaging but also strategically effective. I am proficient in industry-leading tools, including Adobe Creative Cloud, Apple Logic & Keynote, Grovesite, and the Microsoft Office suite (Word, PowerPoint, and Excel). In my current role, I have spent the past three years overseeing the packaging design review and approval process for JOANN private label brands. This includes designing and refining product packaging—such as labels, logos, graphics, and barcoding—while ensuring production meets high-quality standards. I collaborate with vendors and internal teams to deliver accurate, complete, and brand-compliant packaging. Additionally, I create style guides, graphics, and dielines for specialized packaging projects across various product categories. My design approach is deeply influenced by the Bauhaus movement, Swiss typography, and visionaries such as Julia Hasting, Barbara Glauder, Bobby C. Martin Jr, and David Carson. I appreciate your time and consideration and look forward to the opportunity to contribute my expertise to your team.
