Working towards creating a more modern and cohesive look for the company, I layout, design, and code the company's daily B2C and B2B email blasts as well as bi monthly website homepage updates.

As a digital photo retoucher, I helped clean up and retouch images to bring them up to the company's current standards.

Lubrizol creates various chemicals and oils and they run tests nationwide using various engines in either trucks, cars, or heavy equipment. When the test is over they send the engine or transmission back to the lab to be torn apart, tested, photographed, and recorded. I would photograph the parts after they had been tested. These images were then outlined, dropped to white, and compiled into a report for their engineers and archiving purposes.

First and fore most I assisted with managing the photo studio and film based darkroom. I would lend students equipment as needed and assist them with the operation of said equipment or the labs other various tools.

At the end of each semester I would upgrade all the computer's software and set up the accounts for the upcoming semester. This involved a lot of running around and time management to achieve this before the next semester began. For color critical classes, I would calibrate the monitors and printers so that what you see on your screen is what you would get when you are ready to print.
