Why you want me.
Mi Amor.
Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign; these are the names that bring tears to my eyes. We have worked, laughed and cried together for many years, sharing early mornings coffees and late night jam sessions. Often they have been my best friends and occasionally, my worst enemies, but I don't remember a day we have not shared a moment or two together in a long time.
Plays well with others...
I once read the quote "Teamwork is the ability to work as a group toward a common vision, even if that vision becomes extremely blurry." Bravo! With a stunning personality and a get it done philosophy, I am the essence of "Team Player".
Zoom in and make sure "Snap To" is set to on.
If you can't do a job right, don't do it. Words to live by for this designer. My work is clean, professional and ready for print.
Who wants to hear crickets after the big finale
No one, especially this designer. Knowing the current trends that are making an impact on the world around us is what I know. Making a design "pop" off the page with unique ideas, borrowed elements and an outside the box approach when called for is what I do. And "WOW" is what I want to hear.
