Introduction

I am a proofreader, editor, and writer, was changing careers and moving into this field, and was looking for freelance or full-time work. Now I'm enjoying honing my networking skills and meeting other creative people.

What is your graphics/web specialty?

No answer yet

What type of "creative professional" are you?

I am a permanent, full-time proofreader at a law firm in Stamford, Connecticut. I am also a freelance proofreader, editor, and published writer.

What events/meetings would you be most likely to attend (i.e. profesional speakers, group share, party!, etc.)?

All of the above. For me, all these events count as networking, improving my public speaking skills, meeting new people, and having fun.

Additional Information

"I'm a traditional silversmith & jewelry designer with 8 years' experience. I'm also a black-and-white fine artist photographer, use fully manual 35mm cameras with natural light; & have 29 years of traditional darkroom experience."

What Liz Carnahan is saying about this Meetup Group

Before I landed my current fulltime job as a proofreader, at a local company where I am very happy, I gained a lot of knowledge from others more experienced in my field at each and every Aquent Meetup. I found expertise, encouragement, and sound advice in a friendly atmosphere. A member of Aquent's graphic arts talent pool found, in the classified section of a local newspaper, the job ad which led to my present employment. I never know where I will find useful information. In this case that came from someone who is not my own field! I would recommend the Aquent Meetup Group as a great place to network, to take the pulse of the industry, and to meet other talented and experienced people.
