About me
Greetings,
Let me introduce myself as an Senior Art Director and Junior/Mid-level UX/UI Designer, and I would like to share a little about my professional journey. I have always been drawn to the world of design and have a strong passion for working with a diverse array of clients. Being a creative thinker, I relish the opportunity to find solutions to challenges and puzzles in the design realm.
My expertise spans various design software. I am an adept user of Figma, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, and possess intermediate skills in XD. To expand my skill set, I am currently honing my abilities in Premiere and After Effects. Furthermore, I have experience in web development, including HTML5, CSS3, and WordPress. I'm also in the process of mastering JavaScript to further enhance my capacity to create user-friendly websites. My skills extend to presentation programs, including Keynote and PowerPoint.
Collaboration is a significant part of my professional life, and I thoroughly enjoy being part of a team. My previous roles have exposed me to working with well-known companies, where I've had the privilege of editing and crafting designs for various FMCG products, print materials, online banners, and newsletters.
Advertising, particularly Art Direction, has been a significant part of my journey. I have had the privilege of working with three established advertising agencies, including the illustrious Publicis, where I catered to substantial clients. As a Freelance Art Director and Graphic Designer, I've had the pleasure of collaborating with clients such as Carphone Warehouse, London Business School, Visit Denmark, BMW group, and more.
Education-wise, I hold a professional degree in Marketing and Advertising and a Postgraduate degree in Graphic Design from the London College of Communication.
As a native Spanish speaker with a strong command of English, thanks to years spent living and working in the UK, I have cultivated effective bilingual communication skills.
Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me, and I look forward to potential future discussions.
Best regards,
Emilio Cid
