Keith Bolling
I am a graphic designer and photographer from Washington State. I have quite a bit of experience in the web and graphic design. For the last few years I have been focusing on image restoration and photo editing. I have worked at many companies where I have been in charge of the web design and management of sites. I am very proficient using the Adobe Suite CS4 (Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, etc). I have a degree from Western Washington University in Journalism (Public Relations track) with a concentration in multimedia design and editing.
