Italian term or phrase: si occupa di

I'm translating a series of biographies/C.V. and I would like to find an alternative way to say "si occupa di..." besides the expression "he deals with".

any suggestions? thanks in advance!

for example: al momento si occupa di design, grafica e web design. --> currently he deals with design, graphics and web design

could it work if translated like this : currently he is involved in design etc.

Notes to answerer

Asker: it is a very generic "si occupa di", they are usually freelance, so they are not people in charge of a specific department etc.
