I am a graphic artist with diversified skills and abilities, a strong work
ethic with attention to details. Animation, multimedia, website design and
video are my new passions and I love the creative process, collaboratively
and individually. I thrive on challenges, learn new skills quickly, am self
motivated and dedicated to excellence.
I have an Advanced Technical Certificate for Animation and Web Design.
Courses included: Multimedia Survey, Video Editing, Multimedia
Graphics/Animation, Flash Authoring Tools, Advanced Illustration, Advance
Web Design, Advanced Digital Photography, Graphics for Gaming and Applied
Multimedia, ActionScript3-Flash, and the BizSquad Internship (a matrix
group hand-selected by the school to provide consulting and web design for
area businesses).
I have also earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Illinois State
University.
The primary emphasis in my career has been in print media. Previously I was
the Senior Graphic Designer at Advance Printing in Delavan, Wisconsin,
where I interpreted the needs of clients in order to create printed pieces.
I also coordinated the work-flow in the prepress department and often
followed projects through the print shop and bindery to ensure proper
completion.
As a designer I created advertisement, POP displays and packaging, as well
as logo development, corporate ID packages, brochures, collateral pieces,
booklets and catalogs. I have experience with both the Macintosh and PC
operating systems. I am also a digital photographer.
