My experiences for the last 20 years have taught me how to bring ideas to life on time and within budget. I have been working with both MAC and PC computers for almost 20 years and I have gained an excellent knowledge in all areas of design, pre-press, social media, computers and video production. I am very passionate about the industry I am involved with and proud to be an award winning designer for my work. I see one of my major strengths being my adaptability. I am able to jump easily from being a designer, to hardware/software technician, to problem solver, to decision maker. This adaptability can also be seen in my design work, where I am able to handle any task I am given.Some more of my strengths include the ability to present ideas in an effective manner, taking a project from conception to completion, excellent verbal and written communication skills, the ability to solve complicated problems, meet deadlines, and work underpressure. I also have exceptional organizational and management skills and expertise in the pre-press process. My credentials are forged in both an advertising agency, the fast-paced environment of a daily newspaper production as well as the digital environments of an office setting. This unique combination allows me to think both artistically and analytically when solving problems.
