EXPERIENCE
MT. HOOD COMMUNITY COLLEGE (MHCC)
Graphic Design Coordinator: 12.5 Years
I provided professional-level graphic design, photography, advice to, and in collaboration with college committees, departments, employees, students — project stakeholders otherwise. I coordinated graphic projects from conception through publication in print and electronic media. Projects included, but were not limited to advertisements, catalogs, class schedules, postcards, variable data mailings, brochures, annual reports, booklets, posters, banners, fliers, folders, logos, wordmarks, invitations, stationary, wayfinding (campus signage, maps), digital ads, web banners and social media graphics.
I designed and deployed a college brand makeover. I maintained and policed brand-alignment/style standards for all of the above. THE COLUMBIAN PUBLISHING COMPANY
Content Developer / Editor,
Weekly Home and Garden Tabloid: 7 Years
Developed content for 32-page weekly home and garden newsprint tab section. I planned and maintained a production schedule for content, layout and print. I shared-out a quarterly schedule of story publication dates for stakeholders—the Columbian ad sales team who sold ads based on content lineup. I managed budget, procured, assigned and paid freelance contributors; kept payment records.
I was solely responsible for the publication’s design and layout
(including publication name and masthead). I wrote copy
(headlines, titles, photo captions and occasional feature stories), directed photo shoots, prepared for print, and made press checks for each edition.
