 ABOUT

Stephanie Finnemore Graphic Designer

My journey in design has been nothing short of exhilarating. From honing my craft across diverse roles to spearheading my own venture, I've navigated through the intricacies of this field with dedication and finesse. As a seasoned designer, I have actively contributed to the evolution of design trends and practices. What sets me apart is not just my technical abilities, but also my innate entrepreneurial spirit. Having created, owned, and successfully operated my own business, I understand the nuances of entrepreneurship firsthand. This experience has instilled in me a tenacity and ambition that fuels my pursuit for innovation and growth.

Beyond my technical expertise, my arsenal includes a robust set of soft skills that have been instrumental in my professional career. Effective verbal and written communication, adept problem-solving abilities, and a bigger picture mindset, are just a few facets of my skill set. I thrive in team environments, leveraging my experience in client interactions to foster meaningful relationships and deliver exceptional results. One aspect I hold dear is my willingness to embrace criticism as a catalyst for growth throughout the creative process. I view feedback not as a setback, but as an opportunity to refine and elevate my work to new levels.

At the core of my being lies an unwavering passion for drawing, the foundation of my creative expression. It serves as both a way of communication and a sanctuary where my ideas come to life. I am driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence and am eager to channel my expertise and enthusiasm into any role I’m in.
