Alison Cattelona, CEO and instructor, Mobile Mac & PC Training. Alison Cattelona has been a computer instructor since 1990 teaching in over 30 desktop applications. Her experience comes from a background in the graphic arts including paste-up/mechanicals, design and art direction. She took the solid production experience she gained having worked in a print shop to her art director/designer jobs within the advertising and marketing industries. The freelance work that followed rounded out her expertise in the many industries, applications and techniques that she uses today in her instruction. Alison founded and grew Mobile Mac & PC Training to be the highly successful, multi-platform, multi-application training company it is today. Alison holds ACE and ACI credentials with Adobe.
Having graduated with a fine arts degree in design and technology, I spent many years working in the theatrical and motion picture industry. I worked on such projects as Cast Away, Road to Perdition, Scorpion King, Jerry McGuire, Ally McBeal, and Deadwood, just to name a few. Utilizing various software applications, I found great satisfaction in sharing my knowledge with others. This led to a career in computer and software training and desktop publishing. Alison Cattelona and I were excited at the opportunity to bring the resources of the IDUG to New Jersey's design community. I am ACE and ACT with Adobe.
