meet Amanda
So I am finally getting a chance to officially introduce Amanda! I have to say that deciding to hire her was one of the best business decisions I have ever made. I am definitely an “I can do it myself” type of person so letting go of tasks was difficult at first but so worth it in the end. Just the stress relief from the email alone is worth it! She can vouch for how much email I receive everyday! ;) Without further ado, here is a little more about Amanda in her own words…
Hi! I’m Amanda, and I’m a Graphic Design student at Southern Crescent Technical College in Griffin, GA (Griffin Tech to the locals). I have always been a very creative person, just ask anyone who knows me! I decided to take on a degree in graphic design because I love to draw, and as a graphic designer I knew I could merge my creativity with a career that I would love, and one that would maybe someday lead me to my ultimate career goal – game design.
That’s right, I’m a total nerd! Growing up I played some really great computer games—and still do— as well as console games (Zelda or Final Fantasy, anyone?), and it inspired me to create my own computer game. It’s still in the concept phase, but I hope to see it published one day. Because I can never sit still (anyone who knows me will tell you that, too!) I have opened a shop on Etsy to sell my other creations. I have a line of decorated bottles I am currently selling but have recently launched a decorated candle line that I’m really excited about!
As for my job, I have enjoyed working with Lisa so far. She is an amazingly talented designer and we have a lot of fun around the office. I’m also thankful she chose my crazy self to work for her!
