LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF

"Hello, my name is Taylor Montgomery and looking for my my first design position and I'm excited to share my journey with you. While my role as a Process Assistant at Amazon has been a significant part of my career, it's important to note that my creative passions have been a driving force throughout my journey.

 Over the past 3-4 years at Amazon, I've been fortunate to work on some incredible projects that have allowed me to showcase my graphic design, video editing, animation, and illustration skills. While my title may say 'Process Assistant,' my portfolio tells a different story—one of a versatile and creative professional who is dedicated to delivering impactful visual solutions.

LIFE OUTSIDE OF A DESIGNER

Beyond my role as a designer, I find joy in diverse interests. I'm an avid fan of D&D, podcasts, and TikTok, exploring imaginative worlds and ideas. My close-knit circle of friends and I gather weekly for cherished moments filled with music and laughter. Learning from fellow creators inspires me, while the ocean and rivers offer serene escapes to rejuvenate and find solace in nature's embrace. I love my cat.
