Resume: SUMMARY Over 20 years experience. Designer and production artist with exceptional skills and faster than most others. Specializing in entertainment, yet happy to venture outside of Hollywood and Burbank. I have a fully functioning studio and work solo or as a boutique agency with all the bells and whistles: copy writers, other designers, illustrators, photographers, printers, and messengers. Very resourceful.
