    Having been in the Graphic Art world for several years--having stints with companies specializing in Screen Printing, Marketing, Greeting Cards and Commercial Printing--I'm able to go beyond just making a 'neat' picture. I'm able to suggest and explain different printing processes and image formats and how they may impact the final product.

    Hi! My name is Alex and I am a general nerd for Tabletop RPG, Star Wars, and Anime. I am looking to begin a freelance career as I have grown bored with the industry I worked for 13 years. Like many artists, drawing and writing is something that has been part of my life since I could hold a crayon. I am a mother to a 6 year old and have a newborn. It is more than time that I pursue my dream so that my children know they can achieve theirs. An opportunity to show you what I can do would be greatly appreciated. I regularly attend conventions to vend my art and take on commissions. So I cannot wait to show you what I can do!
