Professional Experience

ADVERTISING COPYWRITER After 8+ years as a graphic designer, I am bringing my diverse experience and fresh perspective to the position of copywriter. As a visual copywriter, I can offer the complete idea. My strength is in creating attention grabbing copy that is fully integrated with an innovative visual concept. I will pair well with a creative art director to produce dynamic and effective pieces for your clients. I know what makes people tick, react, and buy. I seek a staff position, but I'm also available for freelance.
