......In 1992 I began my first job in an art department. I was hired by Starter Sportswear as a production artist. My duties were: creating color separations for printed garments, layouts for catalogs, designing graphics for printed garments, logos and hang tags. I was lucky to be working there when the graphics industry converted to digital. In 1993, Starter sent the entier art department to computer school to learn programs such as: Photoshop, Illustrator & Quark Xpress.
......After I left Starter in 1996, I've been a contractor doing various types of work. One of my clients is Bravado, Inc. Bravado is an international merchandise company which produces products for bands and artists such as The Rolloing Stones, Lady Gaga, Elton John, Beyonce,Trans Siberian Orchestra and Whitney Houston. Visit them at www.bravado.com. I create layouts for tour programs, designs for printed garments, and color separations for printed garments. I also design CD, DVD and other product packaging designs.
