Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Nathan Thomas, and I have been a professional graphic designer for the past twelve years, first as lead designer with a company serving the semiconductor industry, then as contract designer for a San Diego based auction house serving multiple big pharma companies including Pfizer and Amgen. I also currently own/operate a small design firm in the chicagoland area, eleven11 Creative Design.
My abilities and experience garnered from the above are quite comprehensive and I hope a solid fit for your company. Specifically my roles have included seeing a given project from idea inception with clients, through conceptual development design with marketing associates and delivery of finished products. Further, I am well-versed in many software programs utilized across the graphic arts industry today. I have provided a detailed listing of these in my attached resume.
I hope that you will please keep me in mind, and my resume on file for any current or future available positions within your organization. Should you need any additional information or further references, please don’t hesitate to call or e-mail.
