  I work with individuals and teams of instructors to deliver custom content to their students in print and digital formats. I manage the evolution of dozens of projects simultaneously, from draft to published material. This includes copyediting, technical illustration, cover design, page layout, content sourcing, and permission acquisition. I see each project to completion by working with the printer or digital provider to ensure a quality product. I also participate in product research and the development of digital solutions for the modern student. Van-Griner works very closely with our printing company, so I also design printed material and folded cartons for them on an as-needed basis, which provides diverse experience in preparing files for press.
