I've given over eighty speeches and interviews on "DV." Dating violence is an epidemic for those you love most. And yet most people have no idea what it is. It's all around us and many don't know what they should be looking for. When you realize serious intimate partner violence happens to 33% of all women (typically between the ages of 16-24), then you know this is one awful plague.I can help. I've learned from an impressive list of DV counselors, leaders of domestic violence agencies, prosecutors, detectives, school-system administrators, victims, survivors, and parents who lost their daughters to dating violence. I know what I'm talking about. If your organization (high school, university, private company) wants someone to explain what dating violence is, who it happens to, and what the warning signs are, bring me in. Benefit from our family's tragedy. Information gathered from 12 years enduring this will mean someone you love or care about will live a better life. Survivors and informed parties have told us we have saved quite a few young women from becoming victims of dating abuse. Had we saved just one person our efforts would have been worth it. I figure we've saved dozens. We aim to save many more. I used to think DV happened only in rough or depressed neighborhoods. Wrong. It is everywhere. There are no do-overs when a tragedy occurs. It happens to people you love. Like it happened to us. Educate yourself and those you care about. That's where I can help. Take a look at WhenDatingHurts.com, and contact me. Dating violence is out there. It's painful. What are you waiting for? Thank you,Bill MitchellBillMitchellDV@outlook.com443-472-7010KristinsKrusade.orgWhenDatingHurts.com

"Let clarity define you." was the tagline I penned for this shop.It remains up nice and big on their website and lobby walls today. There is also the work we produced in my 13 years there."Let clarity define you" is the manifesto that challenged the way people worked.It was about getting to know target audiences up close and personal. It was also about knowing what you were doing – before you plunged into it."Let clarity define you." got this agency into plenty of new business pitches. Clients received superior strategic thinking and creative work then, which worked well for them.We produced the best foodmarketing work in the country.

Found out the difference between being a designer and an art director was more than I thought. It took a long while, but with good creative guys like Jeff Millman, Don Schramek, Tom Mallonee and Dick Parker around me, I needed to wake up and get with it. Glad I did.
