Ann Arbor, Michigan
April 2010 to Present
Created effective marketing program materials, including flyers, brochures, infographics, Powerpoint presentations, posters, trade show booths, websites, data displays, social media graphics, banner advertisements, and stationery. I have used HTML, Wordpress, the entire Adobe Creative Suite, Javascript, CSS, PHP, MySQL and other technologies to produce websites and print materials. I have especially strong skills with Illustrator and Photoshop, and I’ve taught classes using these platforms. I’ve performed a great deal of copywriting and copy-editing, and written many proposals and contracts. I’ve supervised a range of freelance workers, including illustrators, programmers, and printers. Clients included Masco Cabinetry, Merillat, Kraftmaid, DeNova, University of Michigan, Phrixus, and others.
