About this template
The Monarch template takes its cue from print editorial design. A burgundy accent supports a masthead-style header, with a right-aligned contact column that keeps the top of the page scannable. The masthead is structured text rather than an image, so the header survives parsing, and the accent is used sparingly to protect readability. The result suits editorial, publishing, and senior creative candidates who want their resume to look deliberate and distinctive. Choose Monarch if you want a strong visual identity that still reads as a clean, professional document in print and on screen.
