I enjoy utilizing my exceptional attention to detail, working both independently and as a team in conceptualizing, designing, typesetting, and using desktop publishing to produce and create a variety of print for the press, digital press or the internet in multiple languages.

I have spearheaded, advocated for, and developed our accessibility program and am the leader of designing and creating robust accessible documents and PDFs, also PDF remediation, for WCAG, Section 508, PDF/UA, and HHS standards. In addition, I am an Account Manager for several projects for nationally-known insurance companies. For one specific project, I edit pdfs and create fillable forms to be used on the internet. I also am responsible for several variable data projects. Some are weekly mailings and some are monthly. I have a BA in Art/graphic design and Spanish and enjoy using that knowledge to create and proofread highlight sheets and bilingual sell sheets and flyers in Spanish for nationally-known insurance companies. I also frequently hire certified independent translators for specific jobs and have managed foreign language projects in Chinese, French, Gujarati, Hmong, Japanese, Polish, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, and Vietnamese.I have been in the design and printing industry for over 10 years. One thing is true, the learning never stops as the industry continues to grow and change over time. I enjoy learning new programs, applications and procedures.
