My name is Emily Skinner. I am a creative multimedia designer with a focus in graphic design and interactive media. I graduated from Lake Erie College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Integrated Media, Digital Art, and Technology. My multimedia degree expanded my artistic endeavors that have allowed me to explore and challenge the possibilities of the digital arts including graphic design, photography, video editing, 2D and 3D animation, 3D modeling, illustration, game design, etc.  My degree not only strengthened my adaptability to new techniques, software, and technologies but has left me wanting more. I have an undying eager to learn which influenced me to enroll in a game design certificate program at Cuyahoga Community College. This was where I gained experience with Unity, Playmaker, Cinema 4D, and learned how these multiple disciplines worked together to create an immersive experience. I even had the opportunity to create games for Virtual Reality.

For the last several years, I have developed my skills as a graphic designer and website manager at Chagrin Saddlery. With my previous leadership roles, I have developed my organization and communication skills that strengthened my ability to convey artistic concepts or visions. I have also gained multitasking and time-management skills from managing multiple job positions and projects simultaneously. I am eager to collaborate with other creators to make better experiences and tell immersive stories.

Always looking for creative challenges. Let’s get in touch!
