My Design Resume

Contact me at: Dionne333@gmail.com

Objective…
I'm looking for design team work or special assignments with manufacturers and/or magazines. I am also available for private contract design work, demonstations and teaching assignments.

A little bit about me…
I am a working Mom living in sunny Florida. I am the proud mother of triplets, two girls and one boy, eight years old, my mom always said I was an over-achiever!

Why I design…
Scrapbook design is a way to pay tribute to the family that I love so very much. Not only does my scrapbooking allow me to create a family heirloom, it gives me that creative outlet that keeps me sane (did I mention I have triplets – I will take all the sanity savers I can get)!
