deviantArt Profile: FearfullyWonderfullyI like to describe myself as a dabbler. I am a designer who can design for both print and web. At times, I am a writer producing copy for the projects I design for. Social media for marketing projects has become a recent interest. If the project calls for it, I am a video producer. Photographer is another hat I wear, and fine art keeps my hands busy.
I receieved degrees in English and iMedia from Dana College in May 2009. I was an interactive intern at Bozell, one of the oldest ad agencies in the country, during the summer of '08. I do quite a bit of freelance work, and I work for the marketing department at Dana. The work I've done in those areas can be seen in the protfolio section of the website. I will begin contracted employment with Master Print and Web in June '09.
Learning and constantly being involved in different projects and every aspect of the project is why I love this field. There is never a dull moment, and never a lack of interesting projects to work on and people to meet. I am blessed to be able to dabble in almost every step of the projects.
