I grew up surrounded by art. My father was an art teacher at my local high school, where I spent much of my younger years playing in his classroom. I have fond memories of going to school with him, drawing on the whiteboard, and learning how to make pinch pots out of clay. Needless to say, I was always creating. This is where my passion for art and design was born.
I graduated in the spring of 2021 from Lindenwood University in St. Charles, MO, with a BFA in graphic design. During my time at university, I discovered my passion for design through social media projects, including my own Instagram initiative. This experience led me to focus my work around social media trends.
Currently, I work as a Senior Digital Branding Specialist for a local St. Louis shoe company called Footwear Unlimited. I am currently working on our brand called The Frye Company where I shape the brand's visual identity through creating compelling campaigns and designing key assets. This includes email, website content, major branding displays, and more. My role heavily involves crafting the overall look and feel of the brand, ensuring consistency and creativity across all platforms.
My interest in fashion has been a constant throughout my career. While in school, I explored content creation for fashion companies through a social media project, which I continue to develop on @taylormisukonis. My experience includes multiple fashion retail jobs during college, where I combined my design skills with my passion for fashion to enrich my career and expand my style.
Design and social media are central to both my professional and personal life. Please take a look through my portfolio and feel free to contact me if you have a project in mind!
