Before starting and then selling my own agency between 1999 and 2011, I was a well-traveled copywriter and veteran Creative Director having served as Vice President/CD with Rapp Collins Worldwide and Senior Vice President/CD of Integrated Response Marketing at Colle + McVoy in Minneapolis. During my 30-year career, I have created award-winning offline and digital marketing programs for a long list of major global brands including The GM Card for General Motors, Pfizer, IBM, AT&T, American Express, 3M and National Geographic to name just a few. Since 2011, I have been an independent Creative Director, Writer, Producer, and Digital Brand Strategist. My areas of specialty include branding/messaging, content strategy, website development and digital video. I offer best-in-class thinking for clients looking for work (and a working relationship) that's honest, fun and rewarding for the both of us. I am blessed to count in my network some amazing talent I can bring together quickly, efficiently and affordably to achieve singular and specific marketing objectives for you whether you're an agency or a client seeking a fresh, more innovative and effective strategy for your marketing programs.I also have a great passion for teaching and have spent the more than 20 years lecturing on branding, creative and sales & marketing topics in the U.S., Canada and Europe.
