Resume

Dear employer,
I would greatly appreciate your consideration for any graphics position or freelance graphics work your company may require. My experience on both MAC & Windows based graphics systems, illustration and fine art abilities, knowledge of full color printing process, scanning, pre-press setup, web, interactive media & game design as well as the ability to consistently meet deadlines are strong points I will bring to any position or work you might find suitable for me. Over the past few years the bulk of my time has been spent learning and working in the web and interactive media market. I’ve designed and authored over fifty web sites and produced several interactive CD ROMs as well as Shockwave & Flash games for national clients, most notably Mattel, Disney, Playboy, Saturn, Jaguar & Pixar.
Thank you for taking the time to read my resume, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
William H. Crabb
