Cover Letter:

 
I am a hard-working employee with over twenty years in the Graphics Field, seeing many changes and being able to learn and change with the Field. This gives me a large overall understanding of many of the functions throughout from conception, production to final print or WebSite. I am a very quick learner and enjoy the process of learning new things. I love to be creative, yet also enjoy the production side of making concepts happen.

I have been depended on for many of the technical decisions of what can and cannot be done as well as the creativity of what happens. I have been looked to to 'fix' the computers, often saving the company money that they would have had to spend on tech service. It was only when I could not fix a computer that the techs were brought in. I have a great love and respect for computers and am not afraid of them in any way.

I am always willing to learn new things and take a great joy in expanding my knowledge in both Graphics and the Internet.

My ideal position would be one in which my variant abilities were utilized as much as possible. I enjoy both production and creativity in my work. I like seeing ideas through into reality and to be part of what makes those ideas reality. I take pleasure in being challenged and given opportunities to work through any challenge I am put to.
