I began working in corporate communications as an assisitant to the Art Director for an audio visual firm in 1984. I transferred my skills to computer-based applications when the opportunity was offered by Motivation Media (MM) in 1987.

While working for MM's Interactive Systems Division, I fulfilled many roles on a variety of computer-based projects including:

• Art Direction
• Structural Development & Storyboarding
• Interface Design
• Computer Animation and Illustration
• Project Management
• Programming

I have continued to work in this way throughout my career, balancing multiple responsibilities while staying current with new programs and technology. The projects I have designed include:

• Interactive kiosk applications for the Field Museum
• Intranet & CD-based training programs for Sara Lee, Caremark, Kraft, Coldwell Banker and Motorola
• Interactive sales presentation programs for Siemens, Hewitt, PCS Health Systems and Quaker
• Web sites for small businesses and large corporations

While working full-time as a designer I attended The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1993.
