I have also studied Criminal Justice and Law enforcement Training at Catawba Valley Community College in Hickory, North Carolina and traveling the world. I lived for a short time in Barcelona, Spain which was hard not knowing the language. I have worked for a local offset printing company in the prepress department as well as the prepress department at Avery Dennison (a global company). I have worked in Frederick, Maryland for a screen printing company doing graphic design, working in the screen room, digitizing, screen printing and embroidery. I have also worked with a local company designing graphics and producing jobs with their Dye Sublimation process.
