Person: Shaun Firkser

Aaronsburg, Pennsylvania

Professional Resume

My Name is Shaun Firkser. I am a 27 year old graphic designer with a B.A. Multimedia Design Degree and 4 years industry experience. I have recently moved back to London after an extended vacation visiting my family and traveling in South Africa. I am currently seeking freelance or permanent work

I have previously worked at a South African events agency, TCH Visual Communications, creating flash-based audio visual presentations and display graphics. After deciding to relocate to London I worked for Protege International Limited, a design and marketing consultancy where I took on a diverse role that included print advertising, posters, display graphics, packaging and editorial design, together with flash, motion graphics and video editing. I have also had a number of freelance clients - ranging from restaurants, to dance events and independent films.

In my spare time I love pursuing my own creative projects, including photographic, motion or illustration work. I have a passion for the natural world as well as a love of traveling and exploring new places and ideas.

I would ideally like to further my design career by gaining more experience in motion graphics and video editing. My ideal work would encompass both of these disciplines together with flash and "traditional" graphic design. I am also always searching to work with teams of talented and diversely creative professionals so that I may further develop my creative skills.
