I am a seasoned Print Production Designer with over 20 years of experience shaping the layout and technical execution of printed materials such as catalogs, brochures, and POS displays. My background spans both creative agencies and commercial printing houses, giving me a strong dual expertise in graphic production and prepress. I work autonomously, reliably, and quickly, and I am now seeking a fully remote role focused on technical print execution. In my daily practice I emphasize brand consistency, cross-team collaboration, and delivering high-quality print-ready files on tight deadlines. I thrive in environments that value precision and production efficiency, and I enjoy translating creative concepts into production-ready formats for both print and digital assets. I bring a pragmatic mindset, a collaborative spirit, and a passion for helping clients achieve impactful visual communication.
