alent, experience, and the ideas required to translate the needs of my clients into strategic solutions are skills which I possess. More than just a Designer, I am capable of creating images in a variety of media, from the most recent computer programs to traditional oil on canvas. I believe that images and font draw attention to ideas and help create a more effective brand identity. I take the time to understand each client's specific needs, whom your target audience is and the type of business presence you wish to project. Then I help you develop a product that best suits your business objectives and budget. With an eye for developing, supporting and revitalizing your branding, my focus is results. Experienced with both P.C. and Mac based programs, I know an array of software programs. I make it my goal to update and expand my skill sets with new technologies, applying them effectively to my latest projects. Software knowledge includes PhotoShop, Illustrator, InDesign, Quark, Flash, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Bridge and Acrobat Pro. I also work with Word, Power Point, Excel, Quicken, XHTML, CSS, JavaScript and ASP coding.
