I brought my considerable drawing and imaginative skills to Gelhardt Graphics. I used the computer to convert my pencil drawings to commercial materials and learned to design, create and publish web pages.

I am adept in both the Apple and the PC world and I have the ability and discipline to telecommute from home.
