Dates: 8/96 to Present
The first 17 months at Newer were spent serving as a Technical
Support Specialist. I took this position based on my previous
skills and knowledge of Macintosh hardware and software. When
a position opened in the Marketing department I applied and was
accepted. My duties involve but are not limited to all phases
of producing end user documentation and packaging for the entire
Newer Technology product line. This includes manuals, box art
and design, labels, stickers and addendums. I also create banner
ads for the world wide web, advertisements for magazines and periodicals,
direct mail pieces and master CDs for marketing materials and
installer software. I have been involved in the creation of themes
for booths at National trade shows like Macworld and have been
part of the presentation team at Macworld in San Francisco in
January of1999.
I also have experience with working as the point of production
contact with a vendor that localized our manuals and packaging
for delivery in other countries. These countries included Germany,
France, Spain and Italy. Since Newer Technology became a subsidiary
of Tri-M Manufacturing in Singapore, I have been highly involved
in developing systems to aid in the transition from local vendors,
to the production of materials in Singapore.

For over five years I was involved in all phases of Sheplers advertising
production on the Macintosh platform. These areas include the
production of newspaper ads for 23 stores in 18 different markets.
Four color newspaper ads as well as 4-color and B&W ads for

company newsletter, campaigns in direct mail pieces, flyers, in-store
signage and even outside projects like the Annual Report for the
Quivira Council of the Boy Scouts of America, when the company
President served on their Board of Directors.
When I started with Sheplers, their network consisted of 3 Macs
on AppleTalk and a LaserWriter IINTX. My duties as network coordinator

Other duties in this area included installing SIMMs, ROMs, hard
drives, various cards, hubs, peripherals, 10/100baseT category
5 network wiring and connections for LAN/WAN configurations. I
recently set up a Global Village Network Combo 28.8 Fax/Modem
with ARA capabilities. Network administration included using FileWave
to distribute software over the network to individual users, and
Sontorini remote server software. I am familiar with the basics
of DOS and Windows, in order to communicate cross platform.
