- Build the joyfully-rigorous pitch deck that wins the $44,000 - $72,000 account in the room
- Pull a coherent palette from a logo three agencies already over-touched
- Fold accessibility into the first sketch, not the final QA pass
- Grow a scrappy Maze toolkit into a documented system the next hire inherits

- A solid foundation in Stakeholder Management, refined over 1+ years
- Prior experience working on-site in Saint Paul, MN, or willingness to relocate
