I have many years of experience creating printed materials of all types for advertising, marketing and corporate collateral. I recently located to the Triangle area of the Carolinas from the Metropolitan area of New York City where most of my career as an Art Director, Graphic Designer and Production Artist has taken place, both in a staff and a freelance capacity.

The core programs that I use consist of QuarkXpress, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator & Acrobat... and to a lessor extent, Adobe GoLive Studio, Dreamweaver, SEO, InDesign, Microsoft Word, Powerpoint & Excell.

Although no project is too big or too small and I am always anxious to learn and do new things, most of my experience has been in Hospitals and Healthcare, Insurance and Financial Services, Nutraseuticals and Technology. Some of my early illustration work is in the Smithsonian Library, Washington.

My educational background was in Environmental Design and then Studio Art and Art History. I also make available my original paintings and photography in special signed limited edition Giclees.

I enjoy strategic partnering with people on an as needed basis and I work with my clilents to develop unique and creative solutions to their marketing and communication challenges.

In the words of some of my clients"You're great and embody all of the qualities I look for in a graphics professional."...I appreciate your professionalism and attention to detail."...I want you to know that you did a fabulous job under great time constraints."

Thank you for your interest.
