Hello and welcome, friends new and old! I hope you’ve enjoyed the content I’ve cultivated over the years and marked the personal growth I’ve made through my adventures in graphic design. 2025 marks the 3rd year I’ve lived in Colorado. I’ve lived with, met, and worked with fantastic friends, built a family for myself, and wandered deeper into the local community. I am thrilled to be able to contribute to this state’s success, and I look forward to continuing my journey here.

Due to shifts in the business, I was unfortunately displaced due to a reduction in force, which sadly means closing the most recent chapter of my professional life. I am honored to have worked with such wonderfully talented and highly skilled friends at Master Magnetics Inc., and I will forever carry the memories I made there. My coworkers created an environment where I could grow and thrive, becoming more than I ever thought I could be. While I worked for North Carolina 4-H, I learned that my passions extended beyond creativity and professionalism to accessibility and equity. At MMI, I found traces of these areas and more that further developed my brand.

The hectic day in the life of a marketing specialist brings new challenges that require efficiency, humility, and community. Life moved faster than I was used to. This necessitated a streamlined workflow, which manifested in the form of learning and implementing new keystrokes in the software and operating systems I was using. I also learned how to edit more constructively to make quick changes as needed. I learned so much from my coworkers and looked up even more. I realized that I won’t grow if I rely on my creativity and skills to carry my vision. Collaboration and seeking advice are key components to advancing skills and building community. I was able to help my coworkers as well, and this teamwork fostered beautiful relationships and results, of which I am very proud.

At the start of my 5th year in the industry, the community built with my peers is something I intend to foster now that I’ve firmly established myself in my home. Whenever I can bring my talents and perspectives to a job, I will. Even beyond the work and projects, I will bring my personality and interests wherever welcome and appropriate. I happen to be a huge foodie, and cooking is my JAM.

I hope to get to know more about the opportunities I can pursue here in Colorado. I am looking for jobs in the Colorado Springs & Denver areas, so please feel free to reach out to me at nick@nhynesdesign.com so we can connect! ^-^
