User Profile

Yes!!! I am an individual artist, not a giant outsourcing company that farms out work to others. I don't have a workforce of 100 or even 1000-just me-and I will give individualized attention to your project and only take projects that I know I can do well and in your requested time frame. While I may not be the cheapest or the fastest, I will give you the best possible product I can and in a timely fashion. My work speaks for itself. I'm located in the Southeastern USA which is Eastern Standard time zone (GMT -05:00).

My background includes over 15 years of professional design experience in addition to formal training and education. My most recent permanent position was at the largest Southeastern advertising agency in the USA, a senior motion graphics and animation position which I held for more than 5 years. While there I was also the primary 3d animator. Duties varied on a day to day basis but the goal was to produce a variety of television commercials and video production projects from concept to completion involving some editing in After Effects as well.

I've had the privilege of sharing my skills as an instructor and also learning from some of the best in the industry. I feel confident offering my skills to you as an expert in the art field. I'm comfortable learning new products when needed and accustomed to working under deadline.

Currently I work as an individual, producing artistic, design and photographic products and services. Day to day activities include production of jewelry, accessories, favors, photography, invitations and artwork based on client needs. I am available for freelance work and have access to most Adobe products as well as 3d and office applications. I also have digital camera equipment, lighting kits and a selection of small scale props (for jewelry and small accessory shoots)
