What makes me different? Honestly….everything!

Make It

Since 1981

I've been transforming lemons into lemon drops for as long as I can remember. Hustling has always been my thing. In the early days, it was all about baseball cards, recycling aluminum cans, organizing garage sales, and cutting grass. You can delve into more details about my early entrepreneurial endeavors here. Now, fast forward a good number of years, and I'm still in the game, always finding a way or creating one. I derive satisfaction from helping people BE AS BIG as their imaginations, and I consider myself a versatile problem-solver. I excel at taking a broad approach and then collaborating with specialists to refine ideas or oversee the entire process from start to finish. In short, I can lead or follow, work seamlessly with teams, or go solo to achieve victory!

    Then There's Me!

    Even as a kid, if I had a rocky start, I would always have a ROCKY Finish! I was born to stir things up and knock things out. Besides not having grown much physically since this photo was taken circa 1985/86, professionally, I have been kicking ass or at least told myself I was.

    Build it.

    If your job is to be constantly creative, you should devote some thought to your own creativity. I have my 10,000 hours and still counting, a constant student, and still learning something new every day. I still believe that "better done" is better than "better said," so head on over to see some of the work I have helped with over the last 20+ years in my Adventures In Advertising.

    What's Next?

    It depends. I know that I am dedicating the rest of my career to helping the people I work with be as big as their imaginations and try to meet people where they are and take them to where they want to go with what they have. Primarily, I want to do more of the work that I want to be known for doing. So, let’s do it together and partner on your next project.
