Hello,
My name is Janet and I have a BA in Art from California State University, Sacramento, USA where I was President of the CSUS Art Club and graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2004. I'm also a practicing self-employed visual artist, art and design consultant, and published writer. I am passionate about everything having to do with art and design.
In addition to my schooling in the arts I also worked for about four years as an Assistant Gallery Director, one year as an independent Art Exhibition Coordinator, and am also currently working as a workshop developer.
I see that you're not wanting to consider non-natives for your project, but I would like the chance to prove myself if possible. Could I write you an intro. to one of the articles and see what you think? Although I'm an American expat living in Pakistan as I said I have experience with career counseling and I'm an expert in art and design. Please look over my profile and portfolio for more details.
I think part of the beauty of freelancer is that you are able to pick the right man or woman for the job no matter *what* country they are in, you're not limited to your immediate area. It wouldn't hurt you to give others a shot and you may like what you read. Send me a quick message if you would like me to give you a free sample of my intro.
Wish you all the best with your project,
Sincerely,
Janet Kozak
