Summary

Experienced Prepress and variable data programmer as well as more recently experienced as a custom cabinet maker. I switched from printing to cabinetmaking in 2021 for a change of pace.


I have an eye for detail and enjoy learning new things.

I also enjoy helping to streamline and organize workflows once I understand the processes involved.


I have many skills that can cross platform different industries and positions and I am very open to opportunities outside of my main work experience.
