About Amy White
Amy White has over 13 years of experience in the Web and Graphic Design industry.
Upon completion of her B.F.A in Graphic Design from The College of Saint Rose in 1999, Amy moved to Charleston, SC from Albany, NY. In Charleston, she worked in the Graphic Design industry for eight years with companies such as Amazon, Davis Advertising, and Positive Changes Hypnosis, among others. Building on her Graphic Design background, Amy also expanded her independent career into Web and Flash Design.
In 2005, Amy began teaching at Discovery Training Center, where she spent two years creating, implementing, and teaching Adobe Course curriculums to VA vets; an invaluable and rewarding experience. She also instructed Clear Channel employees in their continued education in Flash, Photoshop and Illustrator. Her classroom approach is hands on, with a particular emphasis paid to one-on-one guidance.
In 2008, Amy relocated to Albany, NY, where she has been an independent Designer for almost 8 years working for companies such as Ansell, Upaya Productions, Imagine That, New Choices Recovery Center, and the Berkshire Visitors Center.
Amy continues to work from her home office in Albany, NY. She thrives on learning the latest Adobe releases, and new technology, keeping her skills current. Amy's creativity is fueled and inspired by nature; she spends precious time outdoors with her dog, where she finds renewed energy to focus on projects and approach her work with vitality. Amy is also active on social media hubs such as Behance and Pinterest, where she is inspired by and contributes to the vast online creative community. Amy enjoys participating in local and national contests, and in her free time focuses on her digital illustrations.
