I have managed a team of 4 graphic designers dedicated to producing quality and billable presentations for architects, planners, landscape architects, interior designers, engineers, and developers. I decided to reach out to other firms to see if anyone could use my services. I have an office dedicated to designing new business and/or client presentations, marketing materials including website design, RFQ/Ps, award submittals, photo shoot orchestration, design guidelines and project analysis books for these industries.

I can help by providing high-end materials for you and your firm in a timely fashion. | | | | | | Experience Level | | | | Expertise: Managing the graphics department that I developed for an international architectural firm’s New York office was quite a challenge, as it required me to strategize a growth plan, target and hire a talented and energetic support team, to set and maintain operating budgets, to purchase new equipment, and to prepare complex presentations for multi-million dollar projects. I am also responsible for the design and production of the firm-wide marketing project portfolio monographs. I directed and managed my creative team to support work within the firm and with clients through concept brainstorming meetings, client proofing stages, and final pre-press approval. We ensure that the end product consistently meets or exceeds the overall creative and client objectives. I have expertise in all design programs available on Apple and PC platforms to support the creation of complex designs for high-profile projects in both print and on the web. I also prepare the firm's photography agenda and orchestrate the shoots, newsletters, monitor and maintain the firm website, intranet, and image files – all within a deadline driven environment. | | | | Skills: Expert in Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, QuarkXpress.
