Résumé: Graphic Art & Page Layout
Though I am retired from teaching technology for 25 years, I graduated from college with BFA degree in art and education, and taught art for several years before leaving to raise our children. I have 35+ years of experience in computer graphics and design, including 35+ years of freelance work doing page layout and web design. I started as a graphic designer with a local publisher, Allen D. Bragdon, Publishers, Inc., working on American Pastimes, a nationally-marketed craft-continuity program for Field Publications.

Following the completion of the American Pastimes project, I worked as a graphic artist and art director for Addison & Associates, an award-winning Cape Cod advertising agency, from 1989-1992, and have maintained a freelance relationship with that agency.
After returning to teaching in 1992, I also continued to work with Allen Bragdon as a freelance designer on projects for Watson Guptill, Bullfinch, and Allen Bragdon's own Brainwaves Books®, published by Barnes & Noble and Walker.
