Who is Monique Creary?
Formerly a full time Web Producer for Universal Music Canada, I decided that it was time for me to share my design skills with the younger generation--so I applied to teacher's college. This spring I'll be graduating from Queen's University with Bachelor of Education specializing in Communications Technology.
Right now I'm patiently waiting for various school boards to get in contact with me in time for September. Until then I'll be freelancing my design services, so that I can afford to feed my edacious cat.
Along with web design (including front-end development and blogs), I also have experience with graphic design for print (logos, brochures, business cards) and Flash-based media (e-vites, slideshow galleries). I specialize in clean and simple websites focusing on usability.
Monique, what skills do you have?
Well, after four years at York University majoring in Communication Studies and English I decided to take an instensive post-graduate Interactive Multimedia program at Humber College. There I learned all about Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash, audio and video editing. Through my work and personal experience I've strengthened my knowledge of Illustrator, InDesign, XHTML/CSS, search engine optimisation (SEO) as well as popular open source programs such as Wordpress, Drupal and Joomla.
