My name is Pam Goodburn, I am a highly-driven, positive, and energetic print graphic artist/designer and am always ready for a challenge. I am a self-starter and often seek out projects that will make me stronger. I go to work everyday with an open mind -
I have over 25 years experience as a graphic artist/designer for print, advertising PR, direct mail and marketing, with a thorough command of Quark, InDesign, Illustrator, PhotoShop and Acrobat (CS2 & 3). Working as a Studio Artist for FKM since 1996 I used my talent and imagination to bring an extra measure of style and vitality to the pieces I produce. I worked with Art Directors and Creative Directors to concept and then carried the concept into the production process all the way through to pre-press and have been trusted with large volume jobs, where a single miscue could cost thousands of dollars, coming through, even under tight deadlines. An added benefit is the fact that I also served as a Production Supervisor when needed checking mechanicals and production work for kerning, color and spec sheets before sending to the vendors; check vendor proofs and create Match proofs if needed. As a serious artist and a great eye for consistency, I contribute to the successful chemistry of any creative department, am very organized and dedicated worker and would be an asset to any company. I would like to continue my knowledge towards design, marketing and also account service. I have worked in large companies and small and worn many hats and have enjoyed working together to make a company a family.
