From client services and design, to printing, finishing and fulfillment I possess knowledge from beginning to end of the printing industry. I have worked in screen, offset, and digital flatbed (even designed for Flexo), as well as finishing with saddle stitching and digital, contour cutting. I'm very experienced with the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, as well as some knowledge in DreamWeaver, Fireworks, Flash, Premiere, and Muse. I'm also experienced in the entire Microsoft Office Suite and QuarkXPress , as well as most previous versions of all of the above and continuously stay up-to-date with newer versions. The most valued skill I have is my creativity. It allows me to develop artistic designs using several different mediums, from simple, drawn out sketches to using computer applications in both PC and Mac operating systems. I also have managerial and leadership experience, both in my previous employment and during my college career, as well as currently in my positions as Board Member of two Alumni Associations and a marketing committee member within a professional networking group for the Kansas City metro area.
