Web & Graphic Designer / Jack of All Trades – Available!
designbylyndamarie@gmail.com
I am primarily a web and graphic designer, and I am looking for some work, either short or long term. I have two weeks left at my current on-island job, and then who knows! I live off-island, but I have a place to stay if I need to be here, and I did live here for two years, up until last November.

Some examples of sites I have designed and coded recently are:

Ember Swift
Candlestone Music
TroikaTronix(This is a temp site but will be up shortly at troikatronix.com)
Sorensen Fine Homes
King Edward Bay – http://www.kingedwardbay.com (a collaborative design I was involved in)
All That KaZ

In addition to the skills listed above, I also have experience as an Executive Assistant, a Legal Assistant, a computer technician, and even as a barista at The Snug and a stable helper back in Ontario in my teens! I'm up for almost anything, and would love to continue to work on Bowen, so if you need something done, and you think I might be able to do it, let me know!

I have excellent references, my own transportation, my own laptop equipped with Microsoft Office and Adobe CS3, and a winning attitude.

Available to start work as of July 1.



We are hiring at Tuscany Restaurant and Artisan Eats Cafe & Fine Foods. All Positions - line cooks, pizza cooks, servers, bussers, hosts, counter servers, dishwashers, sous chef.
