Designs

Photoshop Design Skills:

When it comes to design, I consider myself a student. I have basic skills and have come up with some good stuff. However, I am not the best, or more competent out there. What I do posses is general art/design skills that I can and have successfully applied toward the ‘big picture’ of marketing strategies.

Entrepreneurship

Creative/Innovative:

Go Getter:

I will always consider myself an entrepreneur and I believe my entrepreneurial thinking is the probably the biggest value add I bring to the table. I’m always looking to innovate and create. Here are a few companies I’ve created myself, or been part of creating, from scratch.
