Coming from a retail background managing a Curious Cargo, merchandising was my mainstay. Everything from wind chimes to books, statues to party supplies, knick-knacks to furniture. I loved it when a truck would arrive, there would always be something new. I had worked my way up to buyer before taking a civilian contractor position with the U.S. Air Force Morale, Welfare and Recreation and Services Agency in Zweibrucken, Germany. Thats when the fun really began.
In 1988 William F. Goovers, then Director of Sentinel Halls Recreation Center located on the U.S. Air Force Base in Zweibrucken Germany, walked in to my office with an airman carrying a large box. Enclosed in the box was one of the first PC's loaded with Microsoft software. After supervising the unpacking and setting up of the PC, Mr. Goovers presented to me a very large book and said: "Learn this."” And so began my career using computers for advertising, artwork and digital design. Until that day the old Triad system was all I had ever had to work with uploading inventories, payroll, etc...
As Assistant Events Director of the Recreation Center my job included writing press releases for all events, design and layout of all printed media, logistics for events, parties as well as environmental safety inspector/instructor to the restaurant located in Sentinel Halls. Working with Events Director Angelika Seibert and my predecessor Darleen Savell, we developed and received the U.S. Air Force Excellence in Programming Award for Castle Rallies. Until the arrival of the IBM all design was physical draw/cut/paste. Artwork, design and layout from the ground up - CCDavis Designs has been there.
Upon my return to the United States in 1992 I worked in a crafting shop, restaurant and retail management until 1999 when I began marketing race teams, circle track teams and drivers. Proposal development and layout, digital presentations, print media and press release, decal design, vinyl cutting, layering and decaling of race cars and race haulers.
My college days were spent at Mars Hill College, Mars Hill, North Carolina studying Elementary Education K-4. Currently I have a BA in Christian Education for the Heritage International Bible College and Seminary. I have been blessed to use my talents to work in many different fields.
Currently I work I.T., design art work and am the Online Church Service Director at Grace Community Church in Crossville, TN. I also work with the Jr SkillCenters designing and teaching.
