Graphic Artist
CurrentSeasoned graphics pro with extensive digital print production, prepress, and design for new remote opportunities. Great understanding of page layout, impositions, typography, color theory and file formats. I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite applications. Proven small and large format knowledge in fast paced environments. Also comfortable with cross platform Mac and PC workflows. Portfolio available 20 years in the New York City printing industry gives me a broad view of everything digital. I have worked extensively in a Preflight and Prepress role where I analyzed thousands of raster and vector images to determine their print readiness. In my experience, I have laid out multiple book formats using Adobe InDesign with acute knowledge of book formatting including perfect binding, gutters, page creep, etc. I am an expert at manipulating and troubleshooting said files in a quick and efficient manner. I have worked with high end digital files from Fortune 500 companies such as Revlon, Jaguar, Tommy Hilfiger, Sony, CBS, as well as financial institutions such as Chemical Bank, JP Morgan Chase, American Express, Merrill Lynch & Co.
