At Present
I am operating as an independent contractor, but would definitely consider a full-time opportunity if the right fit is found. Current projects include: website design, development and modification, image manipulation, branding through creative design - logos, various marketing pieces., email campaigns, report generation, and formatting content using a variety of graphic programs.

My adaptability working in both team environments and individually has allowed me the flexibility I need to perform effectively for my clients and/or employers.

I am reliable, efficient, creative, innovative, a leader,
goal-oriented and a self-starter who is not afraid of challenge or change.
