Diane Graham

PR & Marketing Specialist

Portsmouth, VA, USA
To play everyday at what I love to do: copywriting, proofing, editing, and project management for websites and meaningful publications.

I’d like to design fabrics and sell them. For me to design a fabric from my own artwork, then see it sewn into a garment is rewarding. I like seeing whole projects completed from start to finish. It is appealing to me.

I would also like to work in a non-profit setting where I am teaching the skills I have to future generations. Teaching in countries where students don’t have the same benefits and opportunities that we have appeals to me.
