With an education rooted in design, complimented by 25+ years of experiential marketing & project management, I am ready for whatever you throw at me so give me your best shot. I get excited about being in the boardroom brainstorming with the team one day, getting my hands dirty executing the next and all of the chaos in between. The concept-to-completion project cycle is what makes it fun and if it's not fun than what's the point. Below is a snapshot of my work over the years. Let's talk so I can walk you through what I am capable of and how that translates into value for you.
