Work Experience

Nathan Sports Inc.

SMU Coordinator, In-House Photographer, Junior Designer

As the Nathan Sports SMU Coordinator, I receive and manage requests for custom print jobs on a variety of water bottles offered by the company. After a conversation is initiated, I foster the process of creating a customized bottle that satisfies the customer's needs by sending out price quotes, putting together a digital mockup of the product for approval, submitting proper files to the contractor, and shipping and tracking the inventory sent out for production.

In addition to my SMU responsibilities, I also serve as Nathan's in-house photographer and junior designer. I help produce product images, lifestyle shots, and informational videos and help maintain, update, and organize all photography-related files. I have also performed both extensive and basic retouching on materials, ranging from clipping paths, to recoloring product, to optimizing files for internal and web use. Finally, as a junior designer, I am heavily involved in concepting and creating custom graphics for water bottles. Companies I have designed for include: Dick's Sporting Goods, New Balance, Reebok, Adidas, Skechers, The North Face, LuLu Lemon, and Nordstrom Rack.
