I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Southern Illinois University in May of 2018 with a Bachelors degree in Business Marketing and a minor in Communications. I am the Orfordville Economic Development Committee Co-Chair where I work on Village branding initiatives, business relations, grant programs and resources and more. I also serve on the Community Engagement Committee where I assist in the planning & execution of events. I serve on the Orfordville Village Board as a Village Trustee. In all of these positions I work with other community minded individuals whose goals include the growth & prosperity of this wonderful community. I also have the privilege of handling a multitude of graphic design projects and public communications. I thoroughly enjoy providing insight with marketing and promotional programs and materials.
The OPL has many events & programs available, but didn't have it's own print marketing materials for these programs. I offered to create a bookmark with a listing of their events & programs for 2023.
Each the year the Village of Orfordville puts together an Event calendar that is distributed to local and surrounding businesses, community posting boards, and more. I had the privilege of designing this card for 2023.
This is the infographic I put together for the EMS referendum for the Village of Orfordville EMS services.

This is a website I helped build with a team of two other ED members. We used Squarespace as a cost effective platform to build the website from.
After moving to the Village of Orfordville I developed the idea of creating a Welcome Letter for new residents. It would clue them in on important resources and information about the village and allow businesses to market their services to new residents. The letter is delivered to new residents by a local police officer and comes with a goody bag full of take out menus, coupons, gift certificates, and other items from local businesses.
