The education and training I received while attending Bradford
School, in the field of graphic design, along with my six years
of professional experience at Dunkin’s Diamonds, has allowed
me to gain extensive knowledge in design programs such as
Adobe Creative Suite, 3D modeling software, and Microsoft
Office. I also have working knowledge of both Macintosh and
Microsoft computer platforms.
I am dedicated to providing detailed work while maintaining
a high standard of organization. I am able to work well, both
independently and in a team environment, to meet important
deadlines. These skills, amongst others, make me an excellent
candidate for your company.
