PRecise Communications With Sally R. Keyes
Graphic Designer
For the past year, I've been working with talented author Sally R. Keyes on her first novel, under the equally talented editor Susan Hicks of PRecise Communications. The 365 page memoir was originally handed to me as a Word document. I am honored they trusted me to bring it to life, using my idea to make it look like a scrapbook. I loved working on this book, learned a ton, and am grateful to have been a part of this awesome project!
