Hi again!

I’m Maddie, a multifaceted digital designer that occasionally cosplays as a graphic designer. I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with a mix of clients spanning various industries, bringing to life branding, interactive experiences, marketing collateral, and 2D animations.

Experience


Education

  • As a designer at this full-service civil engineering firm, I created static, carousel, and 2D animated social media posts, rebranded internal documents, wire-framed and built a website for their consulting branch, and designed presentations for the Florida Department of Transportation.

  • As a designer on the Professional Services Enterprise team, I worked with strategists, copywriters, and art directors to design and present custom desktop, tablet, and mobile interactive experiences for clients across various industries, while spearheading a sales initiative that generated over $650K in two quarters. Additionally, I participated in beta testing, worked with developers to refine SDKs, and led weekly design team meetings to foster collaboration and feedback.

  • “Working with Maddie was an absolute pleasure and she made an invaluable addition to our team. From the start, she jumped into ongoing projects with great initiative, providing quality designs again and again! Beyond having a great eye for design, which in a lot of cases is something that cannot be taught, Maddie is skilled in the Adobe Suite, including After Effects, and even did a whole website re-design on a tight-deadline. All of this to say, I would blindly recommend Maddie to anyone, you'll be lucky to have her as part of your team!”

    - Adriana Gonzalez, Brand Manager @ Metric Engineering

  • “Maddie is a top-tier designer and overall team member! She impressed everyone from day one, and we saw her grow in so many ways during her time at Ceros. Maddie always delivers strong designs, thinks through every customer scenario in a strategic way, and approaches customers in a way that makes them feel confident. She was trusted by everyone she worked with, and known to be an efficient designer who was always open to working with a team to get the best result possible. Maddie was also interested in learning about all areas of the business and how her work impacted the business overall. She was eager to take on new initiatives in order to help other teams however she could.”

    - Keri Hecht, Head of Customer Success @ Ceros

  • “Maddie is sharp, has great ideas and was the one person who rose above the others in "big idea" generation and brought a thoughtful approach to her designs that made sense for my brand. When the others left for the day, Maddie stayed the longest, asking how she could continue to push the creative and where she could help out at. I highly recommend her and if ever a note were needed to be a deciding factor/ a tie-breaker on a who to bring aboard, let this be it. You'll be making a wise choice having her on your team.”

    - Mark Gabrick, Owner @ Gabrick BBQ Sauce Co.

  • “I highly recommend Maddie as an amazing designer. She is a self-starter, fast learner, and always eager to expand her design skills and business insights. Maddie actively contributes to the team and provides support on various activities and initiatives. Her attention to detail, confident communication, and ability to understand client needs make her an excellent addition to any team. You can count on Maddie to deliver exceptional results and be a valuable asset to your organization.”
