Resume
Updated Sept. 30, 2009

Objective
I have a passion for paper crafting. I love to create scrapbook pages of all sizes, cards, tags, altered art, etc. You name it, I love it. I also love to incorporate stamps on most of my creations. My other passion is teaching. I love to help people in anyway I can. My desire is to be on a design team that is looking for a relationship with a designer. I think working with someone and building a relationship is important. I desire is to design for a team where I can showcase the product and help customers grow in their craft. Also, if you are looking for a design team leader, I am open to that also. I have been the design team leader for four stores/sites, and I truly enjoy that also. I am open to magazine work, manufacturer work, online store work, etc. Feel free to contact me if you think I am the person you are looking for to promote your company. Please note that my current commitments are flexible thus I am currently willing and able to take on another position.
