Graphic Designer &
Adobe Certified Professional
I’ve been a graphic designer, instructor and speaker with Adobe software for 25+ years. I’m an active user of InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Bridge and Acrobat for my freelance projects of all types. I’m a CreativePro Week speaker and a contributor, an Adobe Max Lab Instructor as well as a Certified Pro for in5 from Ajar Productions.
Design.
I’ve been Designing print and interactive documents with InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop for 20+ years. I’ve created print brochures, catalogs, logos, PDF forms and digital documents.
Some recent projects include formatting books for print with Amazon’s KDP and Kindle ePub, web sites, logos, t-shirt graphics, infographics, photo collages and Photobooks.
Designing a document is more than just how it looks. Crafting a document with styles, parent pages and other production gems create a better quality and more flexible document.
Develop.
I’ve worked with companies to Develop interactive documents, from animated versions of a print brochure, to a completely new, interactive map, complete with pop-ups and links to outside information.
I’d love to have a conversation about your project. I can either Design and Develop it, or I can Teach YOU to do it yourself.
Teach.
From my diverse graphic design work, I bring a wealth of real-world knowledge into the classroom and corporate conference room. I can create a customized class or workshop for a few students or a comprehensive training session or seminar for 100+ students.
I truly enjoy teaching the basics to the emerging designer, as well as showing tips and tricks to the advanced power users in InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop.
I’ll work with you on:
Speaking Engagements
Custom InDesign Training and Illustrator Training
Seminars
One-on-one Training and Consulting
Lunch and Learns – online training during your lunch hour
