Versatile skill-set to handle Every project 

Hello,

My name is Jordan O’Connell. I am a passionate graphic designer who is eager to get his name out in the graphic design world. I enjoy typography, poster design, package design, logo design, and UX Design. These fields have infinite potential for wonderful flavors that can help make your brand pop and gain more attention.I am proficient with Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, Canva, and Squarespace (which this site has been built with!).

I have graduated and obtained my Associates Degree in Graphic Design from Brightpoint Community College, and, I am currently attending Arizona State University’s online program to achieve my Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design!

I was a social media marketing intern for Little Lions Club, a youth soccer organization. I managed their social media platforms on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. I have helped create ads to promote their organization with the intent of hiring coaches and reaching out to schools while promoting their core values. I comfortably worked alone while maintaining brand identity and translating concepts into cohesive, visual designs.

I am very capable at managing my own deadlines with high-quality deliverables. I take pride in my work as well as being up to date on design trends.

Qualifications

Little Lions Club Coach Hiring Ad. This went extremely successfully and created the most traffic towards their applications on their website.

Front & Back of the Little Lions Club updated school pamphlet. I was tasked with creating a more modern pamphlet with the purpose of them being mass produced and handing out at possible school partners.

Little Lions Club School Ads to attract teachers and staff.

Used a Canva template to create soccer trivia questions for the Little Lions Club social media accounts. I came up with this idea as a way to spice up the content to create more interactivity from our followers and add variety.

Appealing Rebrands

To achieve my Associate’s Degree, I was tasked with reaching out to a small local business and give them a free design overhaul.

Thanks to Richmond Comix’s collaboration, I was able to create concepts of what a complete makeover could potentially look like.

Pen + Gear Package makeover

Part of what makes the design process so intriguing is taking an already established concept and asking yourself, “How do you make this more interesting? What would it have to look like for me to give this a chance?” And I took that question to hard with this product. I believe every brand has the opportunity to make their packaging look as beautiful as they can be.

Redesigned Pen + Gear’s No. 2 Wood Pencil package to be more exciting and desirable. With more eye-catching colors and amazing artwork, customers would be more indulged to purchase this brand.

For the final project of my UX Design Experience class, the class was separated into three teams to create a website design for our client. She was an Airbnb host and wanted to use colors similar to her logo.

I presented the project for my team as we were ultimately chosen for the best design. We created coherent mock-ups in Figma for desktop, tablet, and mobile.
