MY AIM IS TO HELP BRANDS AND CREATIVES TELL CAPTIVATING STORIES...

Hello and welcome to my portfolio! My name is Kori Smith, and I'm a multifaceted artist and designer. Using my skill set in marketing, graphic design, video editing, creative direction, and photography I aim to help brands and creatives tell captivating stories through means of visual branding and digital marketing.

Since a child I have always been passionate about all sectors of art and design. Initially, I had always dreamed of working in the fashion industry and while in high school I began learning graphic design to explore my artistic ability. I always knew those two worlds would collide in some way in my future career. While in college I developed a small side hustle designing logos and promotion graphics for events, organizations and small businesses on campus. In 2019 I graduated from the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff with a Bachelor's degree in Marketing. I knew marketing would be an avenue where I could help people, as well as allow me a career where I could use my skills in design and art in the modern world.

Since then, I have worked in both retail and corporate settings, learning how to expand my skills as a leader, innovator, and creative problem solver. My resilience in these fields has taught me how to provide exceptional service and satisfaction while thriving in fast paced environments. I have learned to know that all brands have these common goals: to improve numbers, increase retention, and strengthen awareness and identity. Thankfully for you, I'm in the business of assisting you achieving such goals by telling your own stories that will connect your customers and target audiences.

​

I'm honored that you would consider me in helping you turn your visions into reality! Now let's get to work!
