Harleigh Abel

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Present.

:Marketing and Graphic Design Student at PIXEL BLUE COLLEGE. After 20 years of dabbling in self instructed design studies, I am currently enrolled in a formal accredited bootcamp style program to refine my skills in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Web Design, Marketing, and Social Media.

In my spare time...

: I am creating new adventures for my self-organized social club (270 members), designing and constructing Restoration Hardware style pallet furniture, volunteering for local arts organization RAW ARTISTS, strategizing how to pull of my next crazy dream, learning everything/anything I can get my hands on and my head around.

Future.

: Once I complete my design program this summer I will continue my education online to learn ruby, refine html, CSS, and javascript skills until I can successfully conceptualize/design AND develop my own apps. Following my education I intend to construct a container home, set myself up to work from home in Austin, TX and Fiji (in the works).

Past.

: Deck Officer and build representative of private super yachts in Istanbul, Turkey and New Orleans, LA; Poker dealer in Austin Texas; Camera Assistant in Hollywood, CA; Mortgage Broker in Daytona Beach, FL; Professional shopper in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Fortunate enough to travel over 30 countries.
