I have the following capabilities in Graphic Design: -- Corporate Identity -- Packaging -- Logos -- Brochures -- Catalogs -- T-Shirts -- Newspapers -- Ads -- Annual Reports -- Books -- Magazines -- Etc I can also create very clean and user friendly websites. A lot of my work can be seen at Walmart. I have done the packaging design for Hunter's Specialties, Carlton Calls, H.S. Strut and Johnny Stewart for the past 8 years. Having worked in the Graphic Design realm for over 16 years has led to an accumulation of superior skills and abilities. I have worked both in large corporate environments and small mom and pop print shops. I have a proven track record of working within large team atmospheres taking instruction and delivering reliable results. I demonstrate independent working capabilities producing top-notch work out of my studio in quick turnaround fashion. My attention to detail and what goes into quality are unmatched. I have an strong desire to figure things out and make things work. My specific abilities include photo manipulation, color correction of images, and special effects. I have a vast knowledge of Photoshop. I pride myself on clipping paths with the minimum number of anchor points necessary. In Illustrator, embedding images, font management, color palette compatibility, extraneous points, arrant fonts and much more are systematically inspected and a tight, streamlined file results. InDesign and Quark body copy contains few widows, consistent style sheets with clean page layout mechanics. I believe in doing whatever it takes to get the job done on time, on budget and with spectacular results. I have a great desire and attitude for learning things I need to know. Programs, output compatibility, work-arounds, tips and tricks are all part of what I strive for. I am a tremendous asset to any firm in which I am related with.
