Incarnate Word Academy

Multimedia Design Specialist

I designed various marketing materials for print and social media. Most of IWA’s material is printed in-house, so I managed a Xerox Color C70 printer. For the larger print jobs, I dealt with printers – usually Grunwald Printing and Gulf Coast Mailing. I also photographed events for the three school levels, both during school hours and after.
