Through formal training and practical application, I offer a well-rounded skill set ready to meet diverse client needs across digital media platforms, software support, and creative projects. I’m retired but actively seeking contract opportunities, and I bring a wealth of creativity, professionalism, precision, and passion to every project. I enjoy working with clients to translate ideas into engaging visuals and reliable tech solutions, from photography and videography to graphic design and web development. My approach blends technical know-how with creative storytelling, ensuring quality results on every assignment. I look forward to contributing to new projects with enthusiasm and a client-first mindset.
