Tootelo Innovations

Marketing Assistant

I worked for Tootelo through 2 degrees over 7 years. I started off answering the phones, and was then promoted to customer service. After completing my degree at Concordia, I was promoted to interim Assistant Director. I was also in charge or marketing due to my skills with the English language and the visual arts. I then returned to school to major in graphic design in order to hone my skills and receive formal training.

Education

Dawson College

Graphic Design

A three year technical degree where "blood, sweat and tears" would be a fair description. I also met some of the loveliest people here. You never stop learning when it comes to graphic design. I don't plan on it anyway.

Specialization in Women's Studies

Started off at Concordia majoring in Human Relations. I soon transfered to Women's Studies where after an introductory level course challenged my critical mind in an all new way. I also took electives in creative writing and law.
