During my time at Motorola Solutions, I had the opportunity to evaluate, onboard and optimize two new project management platforms (Lytho Workflow and Hive) for their team of 15 creatives. It was my responsibility to engineer multiple customized request forms for internal marketing and communications stakeholders to submit requests for collateral, digital design, email marketing, video editing and more.​ 

After establishing form logic to collect the right data for each project type, as well as custom statuses, project views and priority settings, I came up with a workflow that helped balance request assessment with team capacity management among the design leads.

Due to unpredictable busy times for our design team, Motorola Solutions was fortunate to be able to budget for contract design assistance as needed.

I was responsible for initiating new design projects – with all specs, brand guidelines and resources needed to complete work – as well as managing proofing and approvals to reduce confusion and let contractors focus on creative work, not problem-solving.

I also led the selection and onboarding process for new contractors that were needed for design support and other niche projects like digital asset management taxonomy.

With a team of 15 extremely busy creatives at Motorola Solutions, there was a constant risk of accidentally creating 15 different ways to work on common or recurring tasks.

From adding a new icon to our branded library, to implementing dynamic co-branding elements to collateral, to naming and storing new webpage graphics, it was my responsibility to document and clearly present consistent steps that everyone could follow.

Some examples of my process training resources include portable display template use and DAM search guide.
