Professional: I'm a multimedia designer with a 10 year background in the marketing / advertising industry. I started out in the chaotic world of a newspaper office, then plowed my way through fields of small private agency and corporate "stanza" to work my way into what I consider the peak title of that industry; Senior Designer / Art Director.

Personal: Born of a 'blue collar' family. Fought my way into a 'white collar' career. I've embraced both. I've had more than my share of "bumps in the road" in my life, but I've never looked back on them with contempt or regret. My own travels have seemingly brought me closer to my family roots, which I fought so hard to run away from as a youth. To wit, I am an artist for life. I am a freethinker by instinct. I am a contradiction to my stereotype. I am a philosopher at heart. I am my humanity. I am a knowledge junkie. I am highly caffeinated, my friend. I am enlightened.

I've worked with / for: Verizon, Erie Aviation Inc., Tony Urbanek, Inka Dinka Doo: Tattoo Studio, NeuralIQ Inc., City of Los Angeles, MSA, Heinz, Alcoa, Proctor & Gamble, Benjamin Moore, Exel, ADP, Whirlpool, Dick's Sporting Goods

And Now for Something Completely Different.. Could someone reinvent their career every 10 years? I don't see a rule that says I can't. That, to me, is a challenge yet conquered. I love a challenge.
