It’s been roughly about three months over here at Sacatelle, and I’d say I’ve had an awesome experience! Not going to lie, overall, it started slow, but then the experience became more and more fulfilling, with familiarization of standard programs, learning new techniques,  communicating with general design yet again, new ways to showcase my skills, and so on!

Since my first day at Sacatelle, I have made multiple, colorful illustrations, stepped out of multiple comfort zones for the better, learned to adapt to a more simple illustration style, like flat design, been appointed to the main design team, designed bags for real clients which are portfolio worthy, and made multiple connections with my supervisors and coworkers! I’d like to give a special thanks to my ex-supervisor Ramone, who has recently departed from the company, for showing me and all from the Marketing Team all that he could about good design, creative and critical thinking, and for being a down to earth, cool manager. I’m sure he’ll continue to go far, as will I!

Even though this company and what it does is far from what I do, the principle of arts and design still applies, and I love the people I’ve met working here! Design: To be able to visualize a problem and creating a beautifully designed, visually pleasing solution. The Sacatelle Design Team, Ramone, and City Tech has ensured this golden rule will stay with me to the next endeavor and far beyond, when I become a concept/character art success!

In advance, when I depart from the company, I am truly going to miss them all.
