Work

With 35 years of professional experience, I’ve had the good fortune of working at amazing companies with amazing people. Currently, as a Freelancer in graphic design and video editing, my clients include The Milford Bank, Monica Bauer, Elza Zagreda, and Tim Collins Solo Performer. My skill set showcases extensive knowledge of InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, After Effects, Premiere Pro, Mailchimp, and Microsoft Office.

I’m a self-starter with strong communication skills and a passion for collaboration in fast-paced environments. Now at age 58, I can truly say I’ve enjoyed every position I’ve ever held. Each has taught me the keys to success and longevity. I love change. I love to learn. I love to be challenged.
