One
of my first creative directors once said you have to be able
to know how to use whatever program is on the computer in front
of you. With that advice I learned both Adobe PageMaker and QuarkXPress,
and currently work in InDesign. I am extremely fluent in all
programs, using each to create everything from a basic letter
to a multi-page publication.
DRAWING I work mostly with
Adobe programs, working with Illustrator and Photoshop. I am
quite proficient in each program; however, I wouldn't call myself
a computer illustrator.
WEB
BUILDING
I am
familiar with basic HTML and can code a few JavaScripts. I created
this Web site in Adobe PageMill. Currently, I am working on learning
Adobe GoLive.
WRITING Although not the most exciting
programs, I spend most of my writing time in word processing
programs. I work mostly in Microsoft Word, but also have experience
with Corel WordPerfect and even AppleWorks (previously ClarisWorks).

MACINTOSH My current computer
configuration is a Power Macintosh G4 (1.5GB memory, 4Dual 1.42GHz
PowerPC G4), flat-screen monitor, Scanner, Epson Stylus Color
Printer, Cable Modem, sound system -- and I put it all together
myself! Yes, it's old -- but it's still a well-oiled machine.
PC Although I prefer to
design on a Macintosh, I am equally versed with the PC platform..
