Hi, I’m
Claire O’Sullivan
Collaborative Creative Designer
based in Columbus, North Carolina
Allow me to introduce myself and my journey of creativity! We’ll start with college - because that’s where I started to hone in on who I am and my skills.
I studied Industrial Design at Georgia Tech where my knack for problem solving and creativity developed. Communicating ideas, developing them and turning them into a finished product by utilizing graphic design, the latest technology, and working till the wee hours of the morning in the shop is where my passion for designing and working on a computer intertwined.
Desktop publishing opportunities opened the door to work in a variety of environments with many different clients - learning something new with each client.
Working with Siemens International on their logo specification manual was instrumental in teaching me brand identity.
American Express Travel Related Services taught me consistency and continuity.
Marketing Specifics Design Agency refined my ability to be efficient while maintaining quality as I created graphics for the Cliffs of Glassy and many other developments in a fast paced environment.
Working on Scholastic educational books taught me how to maintain branding while incorporating diversity and flare.
I recently ended a 13 year career as a Sales Account Executive for a commercial print company where I learned more about the relationship between design and print. There, I experienced new technology and advanced print options including digital printing, mailing, and variable data printing. The most important skill I refined was listening to clients and developing ongoing relationships.
For 20+ years I have volunteered creating weekly eNewsletters, ads for Facebook, social media marketing, creating events, signage, and other design projects for my community.
During the Pandemic I was drawn to new opportunities … and here I am!
I look forward to creating with you!
