Because of circumstances, she had to jump in, and take over. She quickly mastered the job including dealing with the large customers, designing customers’ advertisements, and putting together a publication that was well balanced, with a beautifully conceived layout, generating numerous positive comments by colleagues, customers and readers. For the past three years, it has been my pleasure to work along with Anne Secor. She has been working as the graphic designer & Management Consultant, contributing with new ideas and a beautifully laid out publication. - Ilania A. Anne is amazing! She is one of the best art directors I've ever worked with - and there are lots of people who I've worked with over the years. She has a great eye for editing images as well as combining them with type in a manner that just helps a layout to sing! She is someone I never hesitate to suggest whenever people ask me "Do you know a good design oriented art director?" - Ralph M. Working with Anne was a dream. Not only does she have an elegant, sophisticated design sense and an obsessive eye for detail, but she's an incredibly organized manager and a natural leader. - Maureen S. I have worked with Anne over the years at both Martha Stewart Living and Thomas Kinkade publishing. She is an extremely talented Art Director; creative, dedicated, thoughtful, and works well against tight deadlines. I highly recommend Anne. She is a pleasure to work with. - Corinne B. Anne is a highly creative, and conscientious person. She brings talent and imagination to every project she is involved in. Always an optimist, her enthusiasm is infectious. She is reliable and dedicated and would be a great asset to anyone or any company who has the pleasure of working with her. - Caron M.
