resume

{objective}

i am a freelance “crafter” interested in pursuing design work with manufacturers or publishers. 
for the past 5 years, i have been working as a blog hostess for Clearsnap, and my published works have consisted mainly of projects done for magazine advertisements, catalogs or other promotional material for Clearsnap as well as several other manufacturers. i have also focused on freelance design work as well as teaching locally. i have not pursued publication in magazines during this period.
