More on Vanessa
First, a thank you is in order that you decided to take the time to learn more about me and look into my work.
As a First-Generation American, I often had to find ways to entertain myself while my mother worked. Over time, those hobbies—starting with scrapbooking with stamps in kindergarten, painting while Bob Ross played for hours, and later on spending 20 hours a week dancing and choreographing—evolved into my means of self-expression. Art has always been a constant in my life.
At Michigan State University, studying Creative Advertising and PR has allowed me to merge my passions.
Through VIM Magazine, I’ve grown from Stylist and Assistant Fashion Director to a Creative Director, overseeing up to 22 shoots and magazine spreads each semester.
In addition, as Vice President and Director of Marketing for NRG Dance Crew and Orchesis Dance Company, I’ve managed social media, created content, and designed merchandise.
