Freelance/contract Art Director for 6 affluent monthly magazines: Beverly Hills 90210, Bel-Air View, Brentwood News, Santa Monica Sun, Palisades 90272 and Malibu Beach. I redesigned the entire publication at the recommendations of the publisher, advertising and editorial departments. I coordinated with sales and upper management regarding composition, layout, design and production of multiple collateral materials. I managed advertising tracking and designed clients ads, emailing and correspondence for efficient proofing systems. I coordinated with editorial and advertising departments monthly on layout of individual articles and sales sections in the magazine. I implemented systems for organized tracking and production of all of the monthly publications. I attended photo shoots for creative direction on all six covers and had hands-on creative development of advertising and editorial design for future expansion projects and special section advertising and format.
