I am an experienced creative director with twenty plus years in the advertising business. For the past ten years I have lead creative teams for such brands as Denny’s, Lenovo, LG Electronics, GE, and Mercedes Benz Vans. In addition to my leadership skills, I am proficient in Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign) and I enjoy rolling up my sleeves and taking a hands-on approach with the work and my teams.
