I was fortunate to start my career at the University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research. I was surrounded by a group of famous people who were largely responsible for the development of quantitative social science research. Working at the feet of giants was a life changing experience and I quickly learned three things:• The importance of The Big Idea. It’s the foundation for any worthwhile undertaking. Go big or go home. • The power of innovative thinking and data-driven insights. Innovation and grounded insights make the impossible possible and bring The Big Idea to life. • The enormous potential of creative collaboration. A team of bright, open-minded, and relentless professionals, working in concert, can accomplish almost anything.I eventually discovered that what is true for success in basic research is true for success in most other fields as well. That is certainly the case for advertising, marketing, brand management, and new product development. To make an impact, you need a Big Idea, a generous supply of innovative thinking and a great team.My underlying expertise is understanding and interpreting human behavior for practical application. I help my clients see the world, including their products and their brand, through the eyes of their intended target audience. This includes learning to communicate with them in ways that are relevant, original, and compelling. If you have a Big Idea you’d like to bring to life, I’d love to hear from you. We can make it happen together.
