About me
I started my higher education work in graphic design. As an intern at Boise State University, I fulfilled the role of Lead Graphic Designer for the Student Programs Board. There I developed important skills in leadership and organization. After I graduated I landed my first job at a Fortune 500 Company, contracting as a onsite design consultant providing design solutions for both web and marketing initiatives. There I developed important skills in attention to detail and time management.
I've continued to work in the Visual Design field with more than 17 years experience providing leadership and client-centered design solutions for marketing and web campaigns that meet business objectives.
I also worked on expanding my skill set to include Program Management.
