About me:

Hi! I am Andrea! I am a digital marketer and graphic designer looking to gain new experiences. With technology growing, I could use my skills to spread my creativity to the digital world. I understand all aspects of every angle, gaining insights, learning the value and importance of technology, and client satisfaction! The communication barrier may sometimes be an issue for me since I am entirely deaf, but with technology today, there are multiple communication solutions! Oh, the benefits of the digital era!

I have experience writing social media and email marketing and designing webinars, logos, and advertisements. In addition, I have experience using Google docs, adobe CS, MailChimp, Microsoft word excel, and google analytics. I hope to apply these skills to the digital marketing field and gain incredible friendships with clients and coworkers.
