View my Scrapbook Resume Gallery

(please note: Most of my more recent work is not currently in my gallery because of publication regulations.)


Objective:
I am currently seeking the opportunity to explore options with both design teams and various manufacturers for page and product design, writing opportunities, etc.  I am people-friendly and comfortable with large groups, I love to teach, and I love to learn, as well.  I'm always up for a challenge. My educational background includes a BA from the College of Notre Dame of Maryland and a BSN from Johns Hopkins University.

I have experience with creating marketing presentations for the perspective of the end-user. I have also performed several educational tasks in the scrapbooking community, and would love to expand both of these roles. I am currently a Critical Care Staff Development Educator, and I am very comfortable in a teaching and demonstrating environment.

Styles & Techniques:
I would probably describe my style as graphic, yet elegant, with the focus on the photos.  While, in general, my pages have clean lines with enough embellishments to visually enhance the page, I enjoy exploring all different styles and techniques. I love to use both bright and muted colors. 

I tend to prefer the 12x12 size, but have been known to make an 8 1/2 x 11 album on occasion.  I am also an avid cardmaker, stamper, and I am currently a demonstrator for Stampin Up.  I love to come up with new ideas on an old theme, and am always looking for new techniques to try.
