Introduction

Michelle Nguyen

I’m Michelle, a digital media and marketing specialist based in Houston, TX. I specialize in graphic design, web design, and social media marketing.

Hard working, loyal, and a team player are just a few of the words that have been spoken of me.  I’ve worked in teams and independently. I’ve managed personnel and been directly responsible for many projects and tasks. Through my hands-on experience and education there is really no area of digital or print marketing that I haven’t touched or am willing to learn.  I’m always seeking new opportunities to utilize my skills, experiences, and knowledge to help others achieve their marketing goals.
