Managed initial deployment of digital production to graphic arts production facility from 20 employees in 1993 to over 200 employees in 2006.

This was during the early days of desktop publishing when everything had to be invented or re-invented. Under my direction Capps was an early adopter and innovator in the growing publishing technology space. I was actively involved in the Seybold Seminars, DDAP, and early Digital Asset Management user groups and standards committees.

At Capps I oversaw the implementation of a wide variety of DAM and production workflow solutions, as well as the creation of one of the first Digital Asset Management consulting groups.
