About

Hi, I’m Lynda Carter (nee Newman). I’m a resourceful and creative professional with a long track record in art, design, education, and communications. I thrive in collaborative environments but am equally comfortable working independently, delivering polished visuals and practical solutions.

My background spans graphic design, illustration, photography, and teaching across primary and secondary levels. I’m proficient with Word, Excel, Photoshop, and related tools, while I bring strong problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills to every project. I value honesty and reliability having a positive, professional demeanor.
