OBJECTIVE
To obtain a position with an established company that will allow me to continue producing top quality work in an environment that fosters teamwork and individual growth.
EXPERIENCE
I have been in the advertising industry for 27 years. My experience spans from the drafting table, with wax and typesetting, to modern day desktop publishing. I have worked with organizations large and small. As a result, my work can be found in a variety of advertising campaigns from industry leaders such as National Steel, Copperweld, LTV, JMC Steel, Weight Watchers, the Pittsburgh Pirates, and Geneva College to smaller local businesses such as EHS Support, Clearview FCU and HyperActive Technologies.
I have produced hundreds of newsletters, brochures, ads, billboards, PowerPoint presentations, mailing collateral (both print and electronic), logos, and package designs for a wide range of industries. I have taken thousands of campaigns from team conceptualization to hands-on production, including digital composition, photo retouching, production/prepress, press checks and coordinating shipment through a local mail-house.
I have been designing, developing, and producing websites for the past 10 years. I have experience in HTML and Wordpress, as well as altering templates to fit our client’s specific needs.
