  • Outstanding interpersonal and communication skills (oral and written)
  • Ability to abstract technical details and effectively communicate to audiences at different levels
  • iOS and macOS familiarity
  • Understanding of UX principles
  • Expert level knowledge of color editing, color grading, and similar core photography skills
  • Professional experience with image editing with a focus on Graphic Design principles
  • Efficient file organization, batch processing, and use of presets or actions to streamline editing
