LET ME INTRODUCE
MYSELF...

“I feel a complete understanding of audience and product personality is necessary for marketing pieces to be accurate and properly received.
Whether the client is a non-profit organization or  a clothing line, the main message to the audience must be succinct and use graphics to cut through the clutter.  I use my foundation in artistic fundamentals such as sketches, oil and watercolor painting and sculpture to present interesting and pleasant designs.”

I wrote that 20 years ago in an application to the School of Journalism. While, it makes me laugh at myself all these years later, I continue to feel the best creative marketing work comes when a deep understanding of the audience meets a deep understanding of the product – just stated in a less self-important way.
