Last quarter of classes

NBEO part 1 of boards is over!! 3 months of never ending studying is done and I hope I pass the exam!! ****Praying really hard*** Now just a couple more weeks left, and I will be done with classes and finals forever!
We have 4 classes left. The classes are ok, but there are soo many busy work. Not to mention, I still have to write up my case report that I haven't thought about since summer 2017, almost 1 year ago.

Currently, I'm taking:
-Business of Optometry: where we learn about how to find a job, apply for residencies, the process of getting licensed

in different states and completing Continuing Education courses, as well as learning about contracts, negotiations, leases, etc and other practice management information.

-Strabismus and Amblyopia II: Probably the most clinical course we are taking.
-Injections: Learning and doing injections.
-Ophthalmic Lasers.

So for my business class, we had to make a resume and cover letter. I haven't really put a lot of thought into the actual written content yet because a lot of the experiences I put on there are projected only. However, I had a lot of (hours of) fun designing a new resume layout.

Business Card Sample

My school was having a business card sale, but I decided not to purchase the personalized school set. I decided to challenge my creative juices to see if I could make a better business card. Please give me some constructive feedback what you think! :) Does this look professional/user friendly enough? Would someone want this business card design?

Thought Process

***

I made a couple drafts on paper to try to come up with a layout before I went to my computer. Here's how my thought process looked like: 

Art, Creativity, Decorations

 Personal project of mine:

I used photoshop in order to create a star frame for my photos.

Then I used Sharpie and other felt markers for the text.  I used construction paper, color pencils, and marker in order to make cut out shapes of the glasses and equipment on the right.

How my photos turned out:

 Sample of my creativity:

Kaiser Hospice Donation Card

Final Product:

As an intern at Kaiser Permanente, I help out the Home Care department. Not only do I help provide caregiver relief by acting as a companion to the senior patients and delivering meds from the pharmacy, I also improve database efficiency and work production for the team of staff.  Recently, I took on a new project with the special needs/senior care calling program. I ease the nurses' & case managers' workload by contacting patients via phone to find the best to schedule a phone follow up health assessment with the case managers. I will also call patients and offer to listen and provide caring and friendly companionship if patients want someone some emotional or friendly support.

Not only do I help with hospital management, I still wanted to actively pursue my graphic design interests. I initiated my interests and was asked to recreate and redesign a thank you card for donors.

I made two versions of a 5.5"X4.25" two sided card. I used<strong> Adobe Indesign</strong> to format the card layouts. I used Photoshop to make the front layout.

Website Design

I designed a personal web page/portfolio for myself.

I used Photoshop and dream weaver to develop the home page layout. I created "image maps" for the table links on the front page and converted it to HTML.

HOME/FRONT PAGE:
contains background header and my name
Links below redirect you to information about me, such as my blog, contact method, resume, portfolio, and fun facts.

SAMPLE PAGE 2: (the "about" link)

contains fun facts & pictures that represent me outside of work.

SAMPLE PAGE 3: ("Resume" page)

Where I have listed my CV and list of experiences I have.

Business Card Design

FRONT SIDE:

BACK SIDE:

I used Photoshop to design a simple and clean business card (front & back sides), in order for clients to easily access the important information quickly and efficiently.

Moving Sign

Work Project.
Utilized Google Maps and Photoshop to create an efficient sign/posting in order to notify customers of store relocation.
