Portfolio

 Welcome to my digital portfolio! Meet me and my partner in crime. This video was done ten years ago but not much has changed. Except that if there's any catching to be done, he's catching me now. "I have diminished, and he has grown." So much...

Sure, I have been on hiatus, but not much has changed except that I need reading glasses while I work. I'm still a sharp as... as sharp as... those things in the kitchen drawers that are sharp. They don't let me near them anymore.

My latest attempt at a j-o-b because I love it too much to stay away:

 

 

 While working at Vol State as Social Media Writer I was asked by the college president to involve the students in a campaign to get Tom Hanks to speak at our graduation. He didn't, but it was a fun little thing to get the students into. 

 

 

 

 

 

Instagram ad to let students know about the new exercise trail:

 

 

 

Another fun challenge: get a couple hundred students to stand still. 

 

 

 

This is a personal project where I took 10,000 pictures (maybe hyperbole, maybe not) and made them into a stop action video. The music is by my very talented brother and his wife. They made a song off of a poem that I wrote, then they gave it to me. This is not the whole song, because that would have taken a million more photos and it's not like I wasn't doing anything (see whole blog.) But it was fun and kudos to my then-ex-husband-now-again-husband for going along with it. 

 

 

 

Time for a break. Would you like some ice in your challenge?  It's probably unprofessional of me to include this:

 

Some of my photos. A framed print of the top one brought in $600 for a charity auction:

 

 

Some samples of my Facebook posts and articles written for Vol State:

 

 

 

 

Some work I did for a private school as an independent contractor:

 

 A flyer I did for southern author River Jordan:

 

 

 And I did this, for what it's worth. 

 

 This has been a very small sample, but I've killed a few computers in the process of thirty years and websites come and go, so you get the idea. Either you like me or you don't. Wait, you do like me, right? 

Also check out my book in the sidebar before you go, with cover painted by me. It's a great book, according to my son! I'd read it.
