Related Experience / Skills
Over the past several years, I have become very fluent with the Macintosh OS, and familiar with Windows software. I am experienced in digital imaging, and have a strong command of several graphics applications. I learn software concepts quickly and have gained the majority of my skills on my own initiative.
My strengths are information design and presentation. Website and software-interface design are areas I feel that my skills would be used best. I enjoy learning new skills related to graphic design and digital imaging, and will continue to do so after my graduation from the University.
