Cover Letter

Thank you for taking the time to consider my resume.

As an Art Director I have many years of experience bringing new products and brands to market by creating packaging, designing advertisements and planning and negotiating national media buys. I've also helped re-establish the BOSS (Bob O'Leary Sports Science - now USA Sports) and the Eclipse Sport Supplements corporate identity as well as taking the lead establishing the Muscle Foods (Muscle Sandwich) and Body-Fx brands with effective package design and national advertising.

Having worked for a printer for 11 years, I have extensive knowledge of the printing process and calculating the best way to print a project at the lowest possible price. My time at BOSS allowed me to work with a variety of printers.

I am proficient on a Mac and helped Penn Creative Litho set up their Desktop Publishing system when I was there. Some of the programs I use are: PhotoShop, Illustrator, FreeHand, PageMaker, InDesign, Acrobat, DreamWeaver, FireWorks, Flash and more. I have worked PC programs such as Word, Excel and Powerpoint, but not very often.

Creativity is one of my hallmarks. I am also a musician as well as an artist. Some of my work can be seen at: www.JimRainey.com.

Thank you,
