Let me tell you this right now–this isn’t your typical resume. I’m just

going to ramble on about all the random gigs I’ve done in the past

and leave you the pleasure of deciding whether or not I’m badass

enough to be on your team.

 

 

 

I’ve done the “online thing” and served as a Community Officer

for an online gaming community. I had to spend hours a day in front of

the computer maintaining the forums, which meant I got paid to sit and

chat with gamer boys and get them interested in joining the tournament.

Other less interesting (but equally important) tasks I had to accomplish

include files upkeep, public relations as well as writing online content

and updates for the website.

(PROJECT HELD BY SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS, INC.)

 

I’ve done the “call center thing” and functioned as an Email 

Support Representative for a company handling Sprint clients. 

Basically, I signed up again to spend all day in front of the computer 

running automated processes for phone line suspension and 

disconnection as well as notice writing.

While in college [for the second time], I spent my entire stay involved in 

the “college paper thing”, first as Literary Staffer, then as 

Features Editor.  Part of being head honcho of the Features Section

was having the opportunity to be Editor of BLIP Magazine, the college’s

features folio that came out once every school year.  

 

After a successful term as section editor, I was promoted to Associate 

Editor.  One of my responsibilites was to oversee  all written content for 

various sections in the newspaper and special publications as 

second-in-command.  This is where I developed my skills in writing, 

editing as well as layout conceptualization and design.

edited and cleared written content for online publishing on all of the 

company’s websites. I also wrote for promotional materials.

 WHAT I’M UP TO THESE DAYS

 

I’ve recently discovered the joy of being in control of my

own time, working when I want, playing when I want.  It

may be scary and unstable for some to be a member 

of the freelancing nation, but I happen to find it 

rather fun and liberating.

 

 

To give back to my doting parents for putting me through

two college courses with only minor complaints, I 

conceptualize, design and create marketing 

collaterals for their many business ventures.  Flyers, 

posters, CD covers, book covers, product labels, 

packages, logos–you name it, I’ve done it!

 

I do the same for others–depending on the project, time 

and resources available–for a fee, of course.

 

I am also getting into the business of web design and 

development with my programmer boyfriend, Jason

Kotenko. under astignet.com.  We have various 

packages available that include starting your website 

from scratch, revamping your already existing homepage, 

changing platforms, and even conceptualizing actual 

content for bare pages, written or otherwise.

 

 



EXPERTISE / AREAS OF INTEREST


Writing, Editing and Journalism
I write anything and everything: magazine features, opinion pieces, scripts and screenplays, poetry and prose, even keyword-rich website content.  Some samples of my writing may be found under published words.
Ideas Formation
I enjoy eating people's brains and developing crazy schemes out of ordinary thoughts.  If you want someone to brainstorm with, drop me a line.
Design Conceptualization
I like seeing cool and unique things and enjoy making them as well.  This actually is a great thing to enjoy doing, especially since I am also into...
Website Design and Graphic Design
 I specialize in simple and clean website layouts, but my love for color adds excitement to my work.  I am the cuter half of the duo behind AstigNet.com, the place of astig web design and development.
Online Social Media
Many people can attest to this...I AM A FACEBOOK AND TWITTER ADDICT.  If you need a social media butterfly to help you spread the word out, I might be your best bet.
Video Production
While I was in school I actually chose video production as my track and wrote, directed and produced a mockumentary film for my thesis.  I've got a Quentin Tarantino thing going on when it comes to this as I like to be involved in acting out the stories that I write.
Collage and Assemblage Design
I like taking random objects and making something else out of it and calling it "art".
Pen and Ink
You don't need colors in your work for it to look amazing.
2D Experimental Animation
I'm not really great at drawing realistically or even drawing actual cartoons, but I do like making static objects move.  I believe stop motion animation is something everybody should try at least once. 
Photography
I may not have my own fancy DSLR, but I do have the knack of seeing things other people don't and capturing it within a frame.  No, I don't mean ghosts.
