Experience Summary
AA in Graphic Design from Western Iowa Tech
AA in Web Design from Western Iowa Tech
BA in Marketing from Ashford University (May 2015)
I was recruited out of college to be the production artist for the largest sign/graphics company in the area. Within six months I was the lead designer and within a year I was the art director. I have worked on projects in all sizes and mediums. As art director of Avery Brothers sign company in Sioux City, IA (averybrothers.com) I not only took the photos for, but I designed and managed the website as well. I worked on everything from logos, business cards, and flyers to billboards, monument signs, commercial signs and electric signage of all shapes and sizes.
Since moving to Colorado, I have now taken on a different position with a different company. I am the graphic designer for a leader in the car wraps and graphics industry in the front range. I have designed wraps for all sizes of vehicles from a Corvette to an Airstream Trailer since coming onto Big Dog Wraps & Graphics.

Teaching Style
I'm extremely easy to get along with and patient. I am extremely flexible as far as times and locations of where to meet. I have a lot of experience designing for projects that not a lot of people have experience with and I'd be willing to teach as much of that as the student is wanting to learn as well.
My Hobbies
When I'm not doing design, my interests include good food, great beer, painting, TRYING to stay healthy, and most importantly live music.
