To Whom It May Concern:

In addition to this letter of intent, I have included: my resume, portfolio website links, and LinkedIn profile link. Artwork samples are available for your consideration on both my LinkedIn profile and my portfolio website (Anathema Studio). Additionally, recommendations, an Adobe Live Workshop recording, and samples of my students’ artwork are available on my LinkedIn profile. At your request, I will provide: additional artwork samples, references, and recommendations.

Technically, I am experienced in: a wide range of creative digital media; web development tools and current with industry standards; L & D and Instructional Design and training methodologies such as ADDIE; UI/UX tools and AGILE environments; project management tools and coordination/management best practices. I have worked within the field, or trained and taught graphic and web development in both higher education and the corporate world, since 1998. I have also run my own business, using these skills, since 2007 - Anathema Studio. Though I started out at a very different place from where I am now, I came to a point in my life where I was completely fascinated with modern day communication. I have sought extensive knowledge of web development, interactive media, instructional design, UI/UX, graphic design, and game design. I do not like to limit myself and I am always telling my students that it is important to never stop learning. Beyond typical fine art media and photography, I am skilled at many of today’s leading programs, such as MS Office, and Adobe’s Suites. I am also well versed in: several of the industry standard web design programs and tools; Content Management Systems (CMS’s Drupal and Wordpress); Learning Management Systems (LMS’s such as Moodle); databases such as MySQL with phpMyAdmin; and coding languages including: HTML, CSS, LESS/SASS, PHP, XML, JS, and JQuery to name a few. Last but not least, I am skilled at user interface (UI)/user experience (UX) design and tools such as Axure and Invision, and project management tools such as JIRA. A full list of skills can be found in the following resume. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Lindsey Avery
