I am a creative and versatile graphic designer with extensive experience across print, web and digital design, and photo retouching. I excel at turning concepts into polished visuals and have deep hands-on experience in pre-press production and printing. In my current freelance practice Windyveil Design (since 2009), I lead design projects from concept through production for a variety of clients. Previously, as Senior Art Director at Reader's Digest, I stewarded creative direction for direct mail, catalogs, packaging, brochures, books, and magazines, while also handling design and production for digital projects. I have also freelanced for major NY-area firms, including PepsiCo and Philip Morris, and I served as Creative Director at Madigan & McManus, coordinating client contact, team direction, vendor relations, and overall project management.
