Work History:
My first job upon graduation was working for a small studio that colored comic books. Our studio colored comics from a variety of different publishers including, Akklaim, Image, Marvel and I also colored numerous covers for Wizard, the comics magazine.

Building on my computer skills, I moved into the accessory/licensing industry. For over four years I designed backpacks and handbags featuring licensed characters from Disney, Nickelodeon, Warner Bros., and Peanuts.

I then moved into the publishing industry, working at HarperCollins Publishers, designing special edition book covers, catalogs, and promotional materials. Currently I work there as a web designer, desiging such items as banners, microsties, contests, and other promotions for their children's and teen websites.
