My illustrious career began with a BFA in Photography from Arizona State University. While waiting for Life and National Geographic to call, I landed every shutterbug’s dream job: high school prom portrait photographer. Tragically, my career was cut short by a freak corsage accident. So I turned to advertising and have been cranking out award winning print ads, television spots, logos, brochures and web sites ever since.
Over the years, I had risen through the ranks to the Associate Creative Director at a darn good little ad agency you’ve probably never heard of because it’s in Arizona. But you’ve definitely heard of the clients: Nike, Fujitsu, The Boys & Girls Clubs, American Funds, Best Western Hotels and many more.
This hard work garnered countless Gold, Silver and Bronze Addys, a National Silver Telly, an IABC Gold Quill and even a medal at the New York Festivals. But let me be the first to tell you it’s not about the awards. My true career goal? To become the only Art Director to use every single color in the Pantone book.
