Summary

A self-motivated, highly organized individual who is prepared with a toolbox of skills and the ability to acquire new skills, my experience has allowed me to perform under tight deadlines and work in a team at a fast pace towards a finished and polished project. An upbeat person, encouraging others, and always working towards the solution of a wicked problem, I am a facilitator of creative thinking and the link between technology, design, management, and marketing. I have the ability to talk design to anyone in multiple ways. It is a long continuous comprehensive enterprise on all levels of business performance.
