[ ABOUT ME ]
As an experienced graphic arts professional, I bring creativity, knowledge, and dedication to the table. Coworkers and clients alike say they enjoy working with me. I’m able to put people at ease and give them confidence in my ability to take a project from concept to completion.
Having worked in the printing industry for 20+ years, I know the ins and outs of design, prepress and print production. I am a diligent worker and excel at creative problem solving and troubleshooting. I’m also an excellent proofreader (aka “spelling hawk”) and a stickler for details.
I am available for freelance graphics projects and contract work, as well as part-time employment.
Please reach out to see how I can be of help to you and your organization!
Client experience includes: Automotive, B2B, Cosmetic, Education, Editorial, Fashion, Financial, Food and Beverage, Healthcare, Medical, Non-profit, Packaging, Pharmaceutical, Publishing, Retail.
