Bio
Ilene H.
Chris was a go-getter when it came to finding a vendor for not just any job, but in advertising, even the most unusual job. She worked with the graphic designers, writers, editors and account managers to get it done and done well. She was a pleasant colleague to work with, sharp for the job at hand and to the point.

I have worked with Chris over the course of my last two agency positions and roughly 8+ years. It's safe to say that I am very familiar with Chris and her Management talents and skills. As a leader Chris has displayed the best judgement and decision making abilities for our creative studio teams. Chris also contributed to the production demands by applying her skills on several design software applications and helped our teams immensely when needed. Above all she was a respected member of our teams and could be trusted to guide or teams best interests.

Docent

2006 - 2018
As a volunteer at a museum whose mission addresses "Art Illuminating the Spirit", I completed a one year training program that covered major religions of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Islam. Background on medieval, Renaissance and Baroque art was provided for the museum's permanent D'Arcy Collection. Ongoing monthly training provides new information, reviews and updates regarding temporary exhibitions (Rodin, Warhol, et al). Docents receive continuous training and lead tours about twice a month.
