My name is Vicki Schenck-Atha. I am a Graphic Designer/Art Director/Creative Project Manager with a wide range of marketing experience. I’d like to tell you a little about myself and how I might benefit your business.
My career started in Atlanta, where I headed the creative department that works with Economic Development and Postsecondary Education to promote partnership between the two. I had as many as 5 designers working under my direction. We produced print and audio visual pieces ranging from training to promoting Georgia in International business. I moved to Birmingham 24 years ago and I've enjoyed freelancing consistently for all but a few of those years. From 1998 through 2001, I was the Creative Director for Townsend, Barney and Patrick's Birmingham office, where my clients included Alabama Tourism, Barber Dairies, and The Drummond Corporation, to name just a few.
While I’ve worked with and inside many agencies, I am presently working directly with clients. My current client list is diverse; an international rare coin and currency auction house, a regional benefits company, a public affairs company that specializes in advocacy campaigns, a multi-million dollar defense and aerospace contractor, and two financial institutions.
I worked with the founder of First National Bank of Baldwin County from the day he put the project in motion. After developing their logo, I have since designed and produced all marketing materials over the last 10 years.
While I am able to act as the visual component of a marketing department from my own office, I’m versatile and able to create in an in-house environment as well. I love to get in on a project from concept to fruition. My strong organizational, creative and communication skills allow me to assess my clients’ marketing needs to propose and institute a plan of action rapidly. I'm also experienced with getting up to speed on a quick turnaround/get-the-word-out-there piece.
If you have need of a visual problem solver, I’d love to show you my work and further discuss the possibilities.
Feel free to contact me via e-mail or call me any time!
