RESUME

​I have extensive background in graphic design principals and practice using a wide variety of graphic design programs. Photoshop is my weapon of choice, but I have several programs in my arsenal that I am comfortable working with in the production of creative media. I've created and published posters, logos, advertisements for print and Web, and even promotional video for a variety of clients, including the Majestic 10 movie theater, St. Michael's College, and a local jazz quartet called Eight 02.

 

Working in these environments helped me to apply the media and publishing skills I'd learned from St. Michael's College in a way that reaped real-life benefits, and allowed me to work in my passions of design and creation.
