I held many hats during my tenure with Homes and Land Magazine, a real estate franchise. I was Account Executive for 24 magazines, managing every aspect of the process of printing the magazines, from Customer Service to, really, anything that was needed. I was also for a time Team Lead on 2nd shift in the Graphic/Layout department for the building of page layouts. This included also building from scratch layouts based on copy folders sent in by Franchisees - I had to be the expert about this for my team. Worked intimately with Quark Xpress, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.
