History:

Diversity, flexibility, and scalability are hard-wired into my DNA. I spent eight years as an apprentice in a Manhattan ad agency while attending day and night school. By the age of 16, I started my design, marketing, and multimedia company.

Creative position:

My passion runs deep for conceptualizing, prototyping, and taking promotional and technological models to the next level, but I am also quite comfortable adapting to established branding stylesheets and visions.

Creative process:

"Pushing the envelope," working outside the confines of conformity, and tailoring are inherent qualities of my personality and vision. There is no limit to imagination, or technical innovation. If I can dream it, it must be attainable.

"Cookie cutter solutions" ruffle my creative fur. I feel that staying within the lines is a disservice to my clients and my creative process.

I am activated and energized by the opportunity to pave new roads and overcoming sales challenges.

Contact me today to discuss how I may assist you with your next corporate event, advertising campaign, or multimedia project.

Insight. Impact. Excellence.
