nicole j. trieste • live, love, design

"Diverse" is a word I've come to live and love. I attended a huge university for a graphic design degree in a conceptual art school. I'm an intern extraordinaire with over a year under my belt between two agencies in two cities. I love working in print, especially magazine layout and advertising. I'm also lucky enough to have a background in photography and an eternal love for it. Oh, and I'm completely immersed in social media. I worked in pre-press at a printing company, visual merchandising in retail, and am currently conquering graphic design, marketing communications, account management, and coffee-drinking at a small advertising agency.a

I graduated in 2009 with a BFA Magna Cum Laude in Fine Arts (Communication Design concentration) from SUNY University at Buffalo and loved every second of it. My education let me think of design in an artistic way. Nonetheless, I still love the technical stuff -- typography especially. My portfolio consists of a variety of work, including professional work, classwork, and experiments.

If I were a font, I'd be Neutraface Light...this week. I have a Pantone picked out, too: 7417. It looks amazing on cream. I'm a dog person, a Mac person, a music person, and a handbag person. I read Wired Magazine like it's my technobible. I'm a true Rochesterian, born and raised, with an endless (and unrelated) appreciation for ampersands.
