RESUME
Professional
info
The information contained in my resume will reveal that I have a great deal of experience in the graphic arts, digital, and printing industry. I’m a “Swiss Army Knife” in the studio setting and love the collaborative achievements that bring concept to finished product.
During my tenure in the graphic arts/printing industry, I have been exposed to a vast number of complex designs for packaging, brochures, and even large-scale advertising products. More recently though I transitioned to mostly all digital products, such as Interactive Visual Aids for the iPad, Field Triggered Emails, HTML animated banners, and websites. On a daily basis, I work to find solutions to difficult designs with high levels of ambiguity and proven ability to work in a fast-paced environment. In many cases, I have helped to meet or exceed clients’ expectations and demanding deadlines. I am flexible and versatile and able to maintain a sense of humor under pressure and thrive in deadline driven environments. I have a proven track record of successful professional relationships with those I work with and can offer references.
I trust that this information will help to give you an overview of my experience. I look forward to communicating with you regarding the possibility of working with your company.
