Work:

Auto Solutions Magazine/ASMSearch.com - Manchester, NH

Designer/Web Associate

September 2009 - October 2010

Initially at this job, I started out part-time filling ads. After 3

weeks I was working

full-time. At this point, I began to hard-code and style the website

to the owner

and creative director's specifications to standardize each page. I

also updated the

100+ page website every week with the new ad content, and did other

site

maintenance. As part of an ongoing project, I am adding Wordpress to

the site and

integrating all of the pages into that format.

Eastern Mountain Sports. - Peterborough, NH

Graphic Designer

June 2008 - August 2008

At EMS, I illustrated small pieces for in-store signage, designed a

wrap for the EMS trailer, updated SKU's for product signage, and

created window signs for use in new stores. I also designed animated

web banners and buttons for holiday promotions. Some of my last

assignments included creating handouts for store events and working on

the Fall '08/Winter '09 catalog.

NH Elevator Inc. - Manchester, NH

Administrative Assistant/Designer

October 2003 - Present

I've worked for NH Elevator, Inc. since my parents founded it. When I

worked

for them on a regular basis, I performed administrative tasks, shipped

and

ordered parts, and assigned jobs to our mechanics and helpers. I am

currently

working with my father to update the website and all other advertising

pieces.

Internships:

. Wed - Manchester, NH

Graphic Design Intern

February 2008 - May 2008

I created signage for local restaurants, designed T-shirts, and

updated collateral

pieces for clients. I also reworked mailer projects to better

understand

newsletter layout. I gained a good understanding of how design

agencies work

from this internship and have been able to apply my experience

there to my

recent jobs and freelance projects.

. Eastern Mountain Sports - Peterborough, NH

Graphic Design Intern

May 2006 - August 2006

I illustrated and created the layout for the Product

Information Guide, which

was to be used for training. I also illustrated key images that

were first used in

the Fall '06/Winter '07 catalog, and are still used in the

catalogs and as in-store

signage. This internship gave me my first corporate design

experience and

provided a solid example of how design sets the standard for

the whole feel of

corporate identity and a retail environment.

. Mariposa Museum - Peterborough, NH

Intern

January 2004 - June 2004

At this internship I acted as a museum guide, translated text on

Japanese items,

and assisted in the purchase of new display pieces.
