Hello,
Good morning. I am writing to express my interested in the Sr Graphic Designer position.
I am self-motivated and capable of managing multiple project timelines. I enjoy working directly and collab-oratively with team members to produce high-quality products. I have lead teams and been part of design teams in both corporate and agency environments.
I bring 18 years experience as a Graphic/UX/UI Designer and Art Director in both corporate and agency environments to the table. I have expert-level skills in all Adobe Creative Suite programs (Photoshop, Illustra-tor, InDesign, Distiller, Dreamweaver, & Flash). I write well-formed HTML 4/5, XHTML, CSS 2/3 that conforms to W3C standards. While I do not consider myself a “programmer”, I do have experience with Axure, PHP and JavaScript code as it pertains to front-end UI/UX design.
Please take a look at my online portfolio … available at the following link: http://www.artangelstudio.com/portfolio
Additional samples of my work can be downloaded in a PDF booklet using this link: http://www.artangelstudio.com/ReSolute/Michael_Holt_Resume_Samples.pdf
