| EXPERIENCE
Since August of 1991, I have been involved with numerous agency
and freelance design projects. These projects include designing
various printed promotional materials, CD and cassette packaging,
photo retouching, designing website graphics, coding HTML,
editing CGI forms and javascript, maintenance of e-commerce
accounts, and editing digital audio and video for multimedia
projects. I have been responsible for project management from
concept to delivery.
I have always maintained an interest in new media technologies
and the potential for their application, including a continuous
involvement in creative projects, both experimental and practical.
I continuously work to strengthen both my traditional artistic
skills in painting, ink drawings and music as well as my knowledge
of current trends in multimedia and online distribution practices.
Having such diverse experience has allowed me to gain a better
efficiency in project management.
