I have always worked in a creative environment. For the past 10 years, I worked in the Pre-Press Department at a book publisher. I worked on the New Seasons stationery line on a variety of formats that gave me a unique experience learning the construction of paper products. Color, pattern, and texture were key elements to the designs. Seeing how design elements come together visually is what I love. — Susan Martinek
