Detail-oriented Artwork Specialist with extensive print production experience.
What I'm looking for
I am an Artwork Specialist with a strong background in preparing files for print and production. My expertise lies in desktop publishing and prepress processes, where I have honed my skills in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. I have a deep understanding of layout, color accuracy, and production standards, which allows me to translate creative concepts into flawless final artwork for both digital and large-format outputs.
Throughout my career, I have crafted engaging visual designs that enhance user experience across digital and print platforms. My role at Hogarth has been particularly rewarding, as I contributed to increased brand visibility and user engagement through innovative design solutions. Prior to this, I developed print solutions that streamlined production processes at Head Print, significantly improving efficiency and reducing turnaround times.
