I am a 20+year veteran of marketing and advertising with national and regional experience. I have had the privilege of working with some really great organizations and franchises. I have been a part of many successes and had my share of mistakes. I've learned some valuable things along the way.

My experience has encompassed retail, food service, healthcare, telecommunications, IT, manufacturing, dot-coms, furniture, and consumer home products with such companies as Bell Atlantic, International Paper, Medical Resources, American Woodmark Cabinet Co., Alcatel Data Networks, Hardee’s Food Systems, Amway and Smithfield Foods. My work with these organizations has included strategic planning, research development and facilitation, award winning creative direction, public relations, promotions and events, media planning, and production management.

I have received regional and national awards and recognition for creative excellence along with national media attention for promotions such as Desperately Seeking Sushi and for work with the former Soviet news agency, TASS and their TASS Top 20 weekly radio program.

I hold a B.A. degree in Speech Communications / Mass Media from Denison University in Granville, Ohio with post-graduate design studies at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C. I play harmonica with a bunch of middle-aged rock-n-roll / blues band wanna-bes, but not often enough.
