I am a highly skilled photo retoucher with advanced skills in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. I can do simple tasks such as blemish removal, color correction, and minor retouching, as well as extremely advanced editing. I am able to composite images to create an image or a scene that would otherwise be impossible to create. There are really no limits when it comes to what I can do with photoshop. Photo manipulation one of my strongest skills. I am set to graduate from the Art Institutes International KC in the next 3 months with a BA in Photography. I am an expert in studio lighting and design and have had much experience being in a studio enviornment. I have also been interning at a photography studio in my area doing very tedious photo retouching. I have learned a lot about the way the studio runs, and what it is like to be part of a team to achieve an outstanding final product. However, it also taught me the importance of being self-motivated and being able to complete a project in an efficient but timely manner. I also have strong creative abilities when it comes to illustration and graphic design. I have designed a few logos and banners for small companies.

I’m a senior web designer and developer with 10+ years of experience helping both startups that need branding from the ground up and established companies with existing brand guidelines.
