With my deep understanding of the traditional and digital media landscape, the clients I've worked with have trusted my campaign strategies resulting in increased client profits, subsequently growing agency gross income.Some of the category-leading local, regional and national advertisers I have worked with include Planet Fitness, The Edge Fitness Clubs, Northeast Utilities, Raymour & Flanigan, Stamford Hospital, Simon Malls, CT Lottery Corporation, Maritime Aquarium, and many local auto dealers. Originally from New York, I'm a Yankee fan living in Connecticut where I could also be found at my second job performing in local bands on the weekends. I love blues music and often travel to see a some of my favorite blues musicians.
