Summary

With an extensive background in both freelance design and designing for precise textile printing, I'm confident that my skill-set will match the needs of most! From conceptualizing and finalizing new designs directly with clients, working with sales representatives, vectoring or editing pre-existing files to meet requirements for new applications, or simply pumping out large volumes of consistently high-quality and precise work to meet production/shipping deadlines, I've just about done it all and have enjoyed and seized every learning opportunity along the way.
