I will help you answer the question, "What type of employee is your website?"
Combining an early background in art and design, a career background in management and the passion of an entrepreneur, I seek out clients and projects that can benefit from these qualities and skills.
With my company, ATI Graphics, I help people build, brand and market their businesses, new and existing, in good and bad times, with 20 years of management experience and a lifetime as an artist and designer and strategic thinker.
