Approved Subjects

Adobe Illustrator

Adobe Illustrator

I have specific experience with creating technical flat drawings, line sheets, product sheets, vector graphics, repeating (seamless) patterns, brushes and symbols. I also use Illustrator to create marketing collateral for my business.
Adobe InDesign

Adobe InDesign

Adobe InDesign is an incredibly powerful tool for publishing larger documents. I have owned Hunter Publishing Corporation since 2007 and used InDesign to create both physical and digital books, kits, product, and line sheets.
Adobe Photoshop

Adobe Photoshop

I've been teaching Photoshop at college level for over 12 years. Working non-destructively to edit and manipulate images and build composites (multi-layered files) is my area of expertise. I often work in Photoshop to create mood/theme boards, color-renderings of fashion illustrations and technical flat sketches, repeating (seamless) pattern designs that are photo-realistic, "Frankensteining" furniture for interior design projects, dimensional renderings showing perspective, shading, and photo-real materials and textures. I have experience in helping students create portfolio work for different majors.
Desktop Publishing

Desktop Publishing

I have been creating educational, marketing, and professional materials using a variety of programs. Desktop publishing typically involves a combination of words (and sometimes numbers), tables, images, and graphics. I use Microsoft Word or Google Docs to create written materials with tables, and limited graphics and images embedded. I use Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets to create any financial or numerical data. For larger documents with better positioning options, Adobe Illustrator, Canva, or Adobe Express. I also use Adobe Illustrator to create vector graphics. For books and kits requiring heavy addition of images and/or page and chapter control and layout options such as bleed and facing pages, I use InDesign.
Drawing

Drawing

During my 4 years of study at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, I learned to use Adobe Illustrator to draw technical flat drawings of garments. These drawings accurately show the construction of a garment but in miniature—usually 1/8 scale. They are an important part of the technical product design process as they become incorporated into a technical package that defines precisely the materials, dimensions, and construction involved in making the garment. The technical package communicates this precise information to the factory which will sew the product.
Graphic Design

Graphic Design

I am a small business owner. Since 2004, I have been the graphic designer for my business, among other roles. I use Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Express, and InDesign to create branding and marketing collateral. These materials include logos, headers, fact sheets, and digital flyers with QR codes that link to my email marketing system in Aweber. I use Photoshop and Express to create social media marketing ads. All the materials are cohesive to my brand guide and voice.
Physical Science

Physical Science

I learned about textile science as a part of my 4 year fashion design program. As a fashion designer, it's vital to know the characteristics of the fabrics you use to create garments. How the fabrics are created, and from what fibers, how they perform, launder, affect the body, impact the planet etc. all play into the success and identity of your brand.

Extreme knowledge in all facets of fashion, very pleasant, and patient

I have used tutors for 10 years and quite often they are very knowledgeable but just can’t teach. Victoria is highly knowledgeable and an amazing teacher. Victoria is truly special because it is rare to find someone that listens. The combination of a tutor that is knowledgeable, can teach and listens is the most efficient with the best results. In 10 years I have only come across 2 and Victoria is one of them

Your kind words are truly appreciated. Thank you.

In-Design Question on Column Widths and lengths

Victoria was a relief and completely showed me how to do what I needed. All I had to do was send her a screen shot, then she did some things on her InDesign page so I could see, then I tried it. She made it so simple after I was frustrated with following question and answer directions on InDesign help pages, and also watching tutorials on YouTube. I even asked for help in In-Design forums. But it was Victoria who made it so simple to learn and it worked! She had time in my session to teach me a couiple of other helpful things. It was a terrific experience! I am relieved that I can complete the job and turn over the file I created for a non profit organization. Victoria saved the day!!!

Kind & Patient Tutor

Victoria is such a kind and helpful tutor! She helped me learn adobe illustrator in just a few sessions and really helped me get to the point where I wanted to be. I genuinely could not recommend her enough, she really wants what is best for her students and you can tell through her lessons.

Amazing

Victoria was so much fun and had all the right ideas to help me with my project! She was very patient with me as a newbie and took the extra time to explain what I did not understand.

Tracy, 3 lessons with Victoria

Patient teacher

She made sure I understood the material and was eager to show me how to anticipate where I might get stuck. She helped me with Adobe for my fashion design class.

Simone, 6 lessons with Victoria

Merchandising and Textiles expert!

Victoria spun into action after we located her in a search earlier in the day for a difficult project. She was online with us within the hour and immediately understood the task at hand. Even given the circumstances, we were done within the hour for the project. Looking forward to working together this semester!

Angela, 8 lessons with Victoria

excellent business strategist

Victoria quickly helped me build a plan of action for a rave wear brand when at the time knew very little about the industry. She is very knowledgeable and is also adept at quickly providing solutions for complex questions 10/10 would recommend!
