Print production specialist at The Watermark Group managing Pressero storefronts and packaging prepress workflows.
What I'm looking for
At The Watermark Group, I prepare and preflight files across offset and digital print workflows, and manage ICC-based color management, proof verification, and press-ready output.
I administer Pressero storefronts and maintain eDoc Builder online stores, updating client-facing templates and product presentations. I also advocate for Enfocus Switch and PitStop Server to automate preflight workflows.
At Peapod Digital Labs (Ahold Delhaize), I oversaw packaging print and color production across five grocery chains, including international press approvals and vendor color management. Earlier, at H-E-B Grocery Co., I led packaging updates, SKU refreshes, and new product launches for its private brand portfolio.
