As a freelance artist, I create a wide variety of artistic projects for my clients, including keepsake architectural and landscape ink drawings, calligraphy for events and creative projects. I can produce invitation suite design for weddings and other significant personal and family events. Most notably I was commissioned to develop multiple drawings of lighthouses in the Great Lakes to be reproduced on t-shirts, posters, mugs, and other custom merchandise.

At Canada’s largest newswire service, I edited and disseminated news release copy for publicly traded companies, governmental bodies, non-profit organizations, media outlets, and PR firms with impeccable precision and focus under strict time constraints within a fast-paced environment. I notified clients of potentially damaging news release errors and miscalculations prior to release, delivering direction on corrections and fixes to ensure accuracy. In addition, I provided counsel and advised clients of best practices, product selection and purchase, and strategic SEO guidance. As a Senior team member, I fulfilled final news release checks and cross-referencing for team members, verifying correctness and compliance with copy guidelines and specifications. Finally, I led training courses for new and existing colleagues, coaching and mentoring to improve individual and overall operational performance while enhancing efficiencies; recommended changes, updates, and provided materials to Training Department on course curriculum, including financial table formatting expertise and tips.My most notable accomplishments include:• Achieving the lowest personal monthly error rate among News Centre Associates, across both Canadian offices.• Chosen as the primary editor for quarterly earnings reports of all five major Canadian banks.• Being appointed to oversee and edit time-and-market-sensitive news releases for the company’s highest profile clients, including major insurance companies and stock exchanges.• Attaining the shortest average News Centre turnaround time among Associates while maintaining accuracy, significantly contributing to the department’s achievement of its highest financial target.

For this Startup recycling company, I managed office operations, enhancing operational efficiency and assisting in growing the company into a provincial industry leader. Always providing excellent customer service, I also handled invoicing and operations management.
