Currently, I am

a full time employee, but open to any opportunities or freelance projects!

Let me tell you about myself.

I'm Haley.

(my feelings won't get hurt, I promise)

I graduated with a double major at Johnson & Wales University in Providence, studying both graphic design and media communications, along with being on the path of a psychology minor.

I am currently employed at Rhode Island Novelty, based in Fall River, MA. Rhode Island Novelty is the nation’s leading designer, importer, and wholesale distributor of amusement toys, novelties, giftware, and incentive merchandise. I run all the social media accounts, as well as the accounts of sister companies. I also create branded graphic design deliverables and create some long form video content. I have been fortunate enough to also travel across the country to tradeshows and events.

I basically get to play with toys for a living, which is pretty great.

I am proficient in the major programs in Adobe Creative Suite and Microsoft Office as well as educated and experienced with the major social media platforms.

Video-based content and production are what interests me the most. The production process gets me excited and eager to learn and gain real-world experience first hand.

I was born and raised in a small town in Massachusetts that is only about 30 minutes from Providence. My mom, dad, two sisters, and countless pets all shared the house that my parents bought over 30 years ago. We always had multiple dogs at once and could not imagine it any other way. I currently have a rabbit named Tito and he is the love of my life. I am also a huge Boston sports fan.

My goal is to continue creating for the rest of my life and inspiring others to do just the same.

This is Tito :)

Hope to hear from you soon,
