I am currently working for a non-profit publishing company. I have over 6 years of professional experience in designing ads, brochures, catalogs, fliers, invitations, posters for window displays and exhibits, and web graphics. Recently, I won an award for two entries in the Catalog Category in the 2008 New York Book Show. I am now looking for new design opportunities and the challenges of designing for different markets and products.
