Resume

Goals
I am looking for a full time or contract to hire position where I can continue to flex my front end design muscles. I feel a little out of shape and would like a new challenge with a creative agency. I am passionate about clean, well organized content and simply designed graphics that enable an easily understood user experience.

Responsibilities & Background
My employment history consists of being a self employed IT contractor for the past 15 years where I was responsible for gathering requirements, documenting and creating designs graphics to meet the client’s needs.

My design experience is my strongest suit but I have also been successful taking layout designs and converting them to HTML. Prior to the time where I became self employed and my focus shifted to information technologies I was a production artist and film lithographer were I specialized in offset printing and screen print.

During that time I worked with retail companies providing point of purchase collateral.
