All my cool creative qualifications:
I've completed my Associates in Arts and my A.S. in Graphic Design and and recently graduated from the University of Central Florida with my B.A. in Digital Media(Web Design). I currently use Adobe CC on a daily basis ranging from Photoshop, Lightroom, Illustrator, Adobe XD, Adobe Spark. I use these skills that I've learned to make my creative visions into something. I have coded my own websites, designed business cards and promotional content and currently manage my own businesses' (social media account, branding, packaging, marketing etc).

My philosophy:
While in school, I have tutored fellow classmates who weren't able to keep up with a professor's teaching pace or had a hard time understanding a concept. I started tutoring at Wyzant after completing my A.S. program, confident that I had enough experience under my belt to pass on to others. I strongly believe the extra help and time spent learning something, no matter how difficult it may seem, can make a difference on your outlook on the subject matter. Understanding content, tools, concepts, interface and the overall ecosystem of what you’re working with helps you mold an appreciation for it and utilize it effectively on whatever business or personal project you are working on.

Other tutoring experience:
I have managed to maintain a 4.0 GPA whilst completing my A.S. in Graphic Design which included certifications in Graphic Design Production and Graphic Design Support. I worked on my college's literary and arts magazine for a few semesters as Photography Editor, Social Media Managing Editor and then Editor-in-Chief serving as the Adobe expert during my time on the team of 5-9 individuals.

Drawing

I have spent many years in my childhood drawing and studied it during high school where I took regional Caribbean exams, placing second in my school. I have also taken up a degree in Graphic Design and Digital Media both of which require preliminary courses in drawing to further studies. Besides educational qualifications, I spend many hours drawing portraits of clients and delivery them to customers for my business.

I recently completed my AS in Graphic Design at Broward College. I've worked a little over a year as a freelancer for a screen printing company by vectorizing and separating artwork for print production. I have been working as a graphic design freelancer for about 3 years. I manage my own social media accounts for two of my business pages and websites, creating content relevant to each demographic I market to.
Photography

Photography

I am a self-taught photographer with a foundation in macro nature photography. Since upgrading my camera equipment I have taken on portraiture as a means of maintaining this hobby and converting it into a business. I prefer using natural light sources, however, I have used light modifiers for portraiture sessions and even a mix of both to achieve my desired look. I am an active participant in my city and alma mater's photography community working with paid clients and models. I also attend conferences every few years and have active subscriptions to leading photographers courses to learn more of the possibilities of photography and light manipulation.

Knowledgeable and Proficient

She is absolutely amazing. I was so stressed about turning in an assignment for my web design class. She walked me through every step of the project and really help to calm my nerves. We missed out on a little time because my computer was moving slow, but that was no problem for Renee. She still got me through my whole project while teaching me the fundamentals of coding. No time wasted. Every second was spent on making sure I got my money's worth and help with my assignment.

Great

I had some major issues with picture formatting because we sell on multiple sites. Renee was awesome at getting me 100% setup so that I could fast track my images. I had to save in different formats for multiple sites before. Now my Illustrator is setup where its a seamless process for all sites. One click produces pictures that will work on each individual site. Thank you so much!

Excellent Tutoring in Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator

Renee is knowledgeable, patient and has a creative approach to tutoring/teaching Adobe CC. She understands how to teach based on individual student’s learning and experience. I first connected with Renee in my entry level Illustrator course over the summer. She was fantastic and efficient! We accomplished a lot in 1.5 – 2 hour tutoring sessions. This time around, Renee is helping me bridge the gap between my beginning skills and course requirements in Photoshop. I understand concepts with her guidance and navigate the program with more confidence. Renee gets an A+ for knowledge, patience and tutoring skills. I plan to continue to work with her as a tutor. Thanks Renee! S.

Personable and willing to work through challenges

Renee helped me remove something undesirable from my website and to figure out some solutions for my needs moving forward. I will work with her again! She is reasonably priced and very responsive.

Catherine, 1 lesson with Renee

I found Renee to be an excellent tutor for my needs. Knowledgeable, patient and thorough!

In preparation for upcoming upper level courses at my University this Fall, she is patiently giving me the basics of the Creative Cloud applications I will need to learn/master to ready myself for these courses. She is adept at both the Beginning through master levels and I am grateful she is assisting beginning steps through upper level skills in preparation for fast pace learning in the Fall. Thank you Renee!
