Comfortable with both MAC and PC computers, Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Suite and WordPress. In addition to generating creative marketing and advertising campaigns, I have a full range of photography, staging, and photo editing skill set. I adjust my schedule and tasks, as needed, to meet deadlines and effectively coordinate projects in a fast-paced environment. I possess good listening skills, not afraid to ask questions, and a problem solver, when issues arise. Most importantly I hold a "can-do" attitude.
