I am proud of my time management skills and proactive approach to design projects. I like to get the job done and at the same time give attention to detail and make sure everything looks just right. I am one of those who will sit at the doctor's and look at a magazine for a long time... and read absolutely nothing because I got lost in the nuances of the design.
