Employment 

L Train Vintage, Brooklyn, NY, US, Graphic Designer

Before joining the KTH in Sweden, I worked my way up from store clerk to the manager for the clothing consortium L Train Vintage in New York. Here, I created a position for a Graphic Designer by proving the importance of design and visual communication to the brand. I then moved from manager to Graphic Designer, and in this position, I was required to multitask and work on tight deadlines. Besides creating ads and web design, I assisted in the construction and planning of three stores, from the interior layout to the exterior presentation. I also have an eye for trends, having selected clothing styles that helped the company better connect with their customers.
