About Me

I have over 20 years experience in editorial and marketing designing and am proficient in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. I have very basic experience in video editing but am willing to learn. I like pushing design boundaries while keeping within brand parameters. I am an easy going and adventurous person that can get along with anyone. I can take criticism well.
