Book Design

I possess extensive experience in book design, starting my career as a desktop publishing specialist and swiftly advancing to the role of art director. My proficiency in desktop publishing enabled me to craft designs that effectively navigated the limitations of page size and content. Even in my current role as a web developer, these skills continue to be valuable and applicable.

Collectible Automobile® magazine, another division of PIL, presents an in-depth look at the cars and trucks that Americans have known and loved for decades, and the people behind the vehicles.
