About Me
Creative, Motivated, Inquisitive Go-getter
Hello!
I'm Michelle, and it's great to get acquainted with you. I am currently a Graphic Designer I on the Corporate Marketing Team at InComm Payments. In this role, I collaborate with my talented teammates to create and maintain our brand's visual identity. My projects span a wide range, including digital assets, pitch decks, logos, branding, web and print materials, tradeshows, blogs, illustrations, and more.
I hold a BA in Graphic Design and Media Arts from Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) and have also studied Art Education and Psychology at the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM). My passion for learning extends beyond my formal education; I am constantly picking up new skills and staying updated on the latest design trends, methods, and brand strategies.
In my free time, I indulge in my love for video games, exploring new cuisines (I can't get enough of food!), creating art, traveling, and continuous learning.
