From Logistics to Design: My Journey with The Bitter Southerner

My career began in the demanding realm of eCommerce dropshipping at The Bitter Southerner, where I managed the shipping of thousands of packages daily in a high-paced environment. Balancing this role while pursuing my degrees full-time at SCAD sharpened my organizational skills and deepened my understanding of both operational efficiency and creative processes.

This experience set the stage for my transition into graphic design. As a graphic designer for The Bitter Southerner, I leveraged my logistical background to craft visual narratives that enhance Southern inspired storytelling. My work includes designing editorial layouts, engaging email newsletters and social media content, and impactful digital assets—all aimed at bringing The Bitter Southerner’s rich American South content to life through thoughtful and award-winning design.

Layout designs and overall flow of newsletters, website banners, social media stories and posts by me, as I worked with an array of illustrators, photographers, and additional graphic designers.

All projects and graphics were created and edited with Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
