Dear Hiring Professional: Success is derived from serving other people. I believe it lies in one’s ability to merge the strategic, the creative and the tactical thereby building a strong and decisive team. This type of structure is where I’m most effective. Therefore, I am enclosing my resume outlining my qualifications for your review and consider- ation. As noted, I have served in various capacities enabling me to hone my Graphic BRUCE HENRY Communications, Management and Leadership skills. The principles learned will Graphic Designer be a positive influence on my success in your firm. Throughout my career, I’ve experienced continued growth through self-learning and the pursuit of higher education. As a result, I have: • Conceptualized various communications projects from planning through execution and completion; conducted executive presentations designed to establish the firm as the preferred flooring provider. • Architected entire look of new company marketing materials, including PowerPoint presentations incorporating newly developed imagery. • Authored development of custom invitations, greeting cards, and novelty ornaments, for in-house use as well as key clientele. • Oversaw major projects; utilized outstanding leadership skills to encourage team to meet deadlines while exceeding expectations. I am a dependable, trustworthy professional with an entrepreneurial spirit. This creates in me an attitude of enthusiasm to go above and beyond the call of duty and successfully complete the job at hand. Since I hold myself to extremely high standards and I pride myself in being ethical, a quality becoming increasingly scarce today, I require much more from my performance than any employer would expect. This means that those for whom I am employed will benefit greatly from my services. Therefore, if you could benefit from someone who is willing to take ownership, please review the attached resume and feel free to contact me at your conve- nience so we can discuss ideas on how I can assist your organization in reaching its goals. Sincerely, Bruce M. Henrycover letter a. 227 Silver Fox Trail Dallas, GA 30157 p. 678.656.7466 e. bruce.henry@msn.com www.bmhdezinestudio.com

POP display This point of purchase display is for the Oakley brand. The company carries a line of prescription eyewear. Everyone is familiar their logo but I still wanted it to be very much a part of the design. The idea was that it would be displayed in the upscale eyewear store so there had to be a level of quality to the display as there is with their merchandise. 14graphic designdigital illustration
