Congratulations to Catherine Ford on Her New Job
at Universal Parks & Resorts in Orlando, Florida

Catherine Ford
Art Traffic Controller/Designer Universal Parks & Resorts Orlando, Florida Catherine coordinates Art Traffic within the Merchandise Art Department for Universal Parks and Resorts Global Merchandise. Her responsibilities include daily maintenance of database, sorting projects, contacting various licensors, and coordinating approvals within the buying team. She has had several jobs in Orlando but she's still searching for the Design Job with either Disney or Universal. Catherine stays in touch with me regularly in this search. It's very difficult to get into these places as Designers - she has an outstanding portfolio. Previously, she was a Merchandise Team Leader at Universal and also worked at Disney as a Merchandise Coordinator - she monitored the Cast Deployment System, keeping the workflow of employee breaks, bump-outs, and overall store coverage running smoothly. Her responsibilities also included building tills & balancing the store safe, as well as training employees. Catherine got her background in merchandising at Alex & Ani, a jewelry company in Miami/Fort Lauderdale where she designed collateral & advertising for the company. She talks to me about her desire to be a Designer there in Orlando and she won't give up!!!
