Belinda Harrison

My position as Production Editor for the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources allows me to use both my education and work experience. My daily duties include editing, design, layout, copyright and permissions, print management and various forms of bureau communication.

My education includes a BS from NM Tech in Technical Communication with a minor in Geology, and an Associate Degree in Advertising and Design. My background includes website development, culinary instruction, temporary positions at NM Tech, and over ten years editing and writing at Sandia National Laboratory (SNL) as well as experience in the commercial printing industry as a graphic and production artist. My knowledge and experience in the process of producing technical materials from concept, development, and final publication is in-depth, dynamic and diverse. During my ten years at SNL I held an active Department of Energy (DOE) L clearance from 1998 to 9/2008.
