As a Print Composer, I worked with many business to business and business to consumer publications like the The Jewish Chronicle, Youngstown Business Journal, Timberline and so forth. I handled a variety of projects from paper to high glossy runs, with my main tasks being creating, editing, proofing and even plating.

Files outside of house were received via ftp, email, and disk, with a majority of publications being dealt with in Quark, Page Maker, InDesign and Adobe Acrobat. Final production was done with Creo, before being sent to press.

As a former Graphic Designer for their subdivision company Kerr Promotions, I use to setup, refresh, and create imprints to be placed upon everything from business cards to mugs, hats, t-shirts, road signs and more. Often I serviced smaller in home businesses that were looking to deal with vendors offering the best quality for their limited location.

Primary programs used were Adobe Illustrator, as well as technical clean up in Adobe Photoshop.

As an illustrator with Shoreline of Infinity, I get the opportunity to bring short stories to life with a companion image. I create with a variety styles, whatever works best with the tale, and deliver them by publication deadline.

I also got the chance to design my first book cover with them: Multiverse – an international anthology of science fiction poetry. A wonderful project that brings many authors to the literary forefront.
