Professional Experience
I’ve worked in public relations, advertising, marketing, creative, interactive, and broadcast. I’ve created work for iconic brands like Bridgestone/Firestone, Goodwill and Jack Daniel’s. I’ve managed strategic and creative initiatives for national companies in healthcare, finance and energy. But I’ve done it all in one place. What I’ve learned is to help our clients achieve success we must continuously look for ways to integrate these mediums and to embrace the diversity of thought that each discipline represents.
There’s an artist in everyone. You just have to figure out what your art is.

How'd you get here
Nearing the end of my college career, I ran into an old high school friend who mentioned she was working in advertising. I shared that I was interested in a similar career path so she passed along a colleague’s name and number for a possible job opening. I called the next week, had an interview, and got the job. It’s been 30 years, and I’m still here. You never know when a single conversation will change your life.
