In a world where art has increasingly become a disposable product, it has become as momentary as the latest fashion trends. I feel that there are many new opportunites to utilized a wide range of newly acquired skills and creative talents in a constantly changing cultural environment. I hope for my contribution to society to be an outlet of unlimited fresh visions and endless communicative ideas.
My educational background from Grant MacEwan College in
the Digital Media and Design Program, along with my professional approach to design, previous work experience and constant experimentation through my own personal creativity has provided me with the proper knowledge for any possible visual communication obstacles that may arise.
I have become fairly experienced with the Adobe Creative Suite programs; InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. Through my courses at MacEwan I have also gained some basic knowledge in with the web programs, Dreamweaver and Flash. I excell when it comes to working in a collaborative and team based environment providing creative communicative solutions for clients. Throughout my work experience I have strived to become an excellent communicator both verbally and visually. Evidence of my attention to detail and professionalism can be seen in my various styles and design.
