What I love about this business – the many people I get to meet and work with – clients, Suppliers, etc.  The many creative ideas generated in our industry.
I also love telling the story of our great industry and how our medium helps to tell a brand story.   While Branding may appear to be about products, it is really about how the brand message affects and resonates with the recipient, which in turn motivates the recipient to action.


My dream client – the client who engages me with just their initial  thoughts and dreams about what they want to do and then allows me to
collaboratively develop that thought/dream and bring the brand message to life.


What I love doing – Helping, Aiding, Assisting, Teaching , Caring, whether in business or as a volunteer.
I Would Like Visit -  Italy:   Rome, Venice, Tuscany, Milan.
4 Fun Facts About Me – I like to sing though I cannot sing, I like line dancing, I like to bake, I love to read, and I like old movies.
