I´d really like to get this Job because it call my attention that they´re looking for someone who manage and maintain graphic files, including photos, logos and art, and actually I´m a photographer and my uncles have Publicity Company so I can take and manage some pictures because of my knowledge and experience. Also I think I have all the qualities required and I´m an organized person and a good comunicator. Besides I´m creative and I´m finishing my university degree in graphic design, which is good because I´ve been learning throughout my career how to use programs like (Photoshp, Ilustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Adobe Flash, Fireworks).
