Spending more than a decade in the advertising industry has really sent my creative mind into overdrive. New ideas never cease, and they often develop where I least expect them...at a baseball game, on the freeway, in the shower, even in my sleep. I’m the guy who can translate a concept into every form of media; from Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, to newspapers and magazines, to TV and webcasts, and everything in between. Sure enough, it will all change tomorrow, and I will make it my business to master the next “in thing.”
