Expertise and Background
I have previously earned a B.S. in Graphic Design from Bob Jones University and an M.A. in Graphic Design from Savannah College of Art and Design. I am currently pursuing a M.Ed. in Educational Technology. I would like to eventually pursue a doctorate in art history or aesthetics.

I have been involved heavily in technology for the past ten years, working with information technology, digital media archiving, web programming, web development, and graphic design. I currently work for a consulting firm in Greenville, SC as an Art Director, managing the design methodology and look-and-feel for all outgoing materials. The firm specializes in corporate education, change management, and large-scale event management for national clients. I also continue to freelance to a wide variety of clients, offering web development, graphic design, and branding services. My [|freelance web site] has a small portion of my work that I have produced over the past couple of years.

I received a classical art education, including training in drawing, painting, printmaking, traditional and digital illustration, color theory, and composition. I am also a semi-pro photographer, and love to shoot while traveling.

My video introduction is available at [|on youtube].





Learning and ID Methodology
As I mentioned above, I work for a consulting firm specializing in corporate training. Although I have no formal training in education, I am passionate about the learning process, and am a lifetime learner in personality. At work, I generally use a generic ADDIE model (or something close to the [|intuology model]). I work with instructional designers and technical writers on a regular basis to develop courseware and educational approaches in a variety of media.

Since I am generally a highly-structured learner, I find the approach of the Dick and Carey Model to be closest to my natural development process. Although I do not currently follow each stage religiously, it comes the closest to my current process and methodology.

Team Positioning
I have a background in a variety of areas, including graphic design, multimedia production, and technical writing. Although I can execute project management, it is not my preference. An ideal position would combine several of the areas (listed above) that I feel comfortable working within. I enjoy the high-level planning, as well as the task-driven details, so my role may morph somewhat throughout the project, as needs and requirements change.
