Paul Doran

Objective & About

Hi! My name is Paul Doran. I am looking for jobs that will allow me to hone and employ the use of my skills in web, graphics, marketing, and related fields.

I have always had a passion for computers. I have used my experience in web design and graphics to manage & develop websites, as well as create logos, flyers, brochures, etc. for Texas Tech University, professional UFC fighter Jessica Eye, DJ Nasha, and multiple other companies including All Star Home Group Realty, ResuMakers.com, Highlands Natural Resources, Alfson Energy, Glow Station, Jimenez Bakery, Just Media Studios, The Copy Outlet, and many other small projects.

I have a keen eye for detail, and a great deal of organizational sense–especially when it comes to digital content. I am also a quick typer at speeds up to 100 words per minute and have knowledge in SEO, web analytics, social media, Microsoft Office, and photography, as well as in Adobe & related software involved with video editing, music editing, and audio transcription. I am also quite adept at fixing computer and software issues, removing viruses and malware, and using computers in an effective and efficient way.

On a more personal note, I enjoy tennis and played on varsity & junior varsity teams in high school. Music is also a passion of mine, and I have played and taken classes for guitar, piano, and violin in the past. Other interests of mine include photography, travel, space, and science.
