BRAND
STRATEGY

I was once asked the question, “what is your why?” For me, it has always been a passion for people — to create businesses & brands that push the boundaries of their industry, connecting with their consumer in a mutually beneficial way, and helping other entrepreneurs solve problems. As my wife has often told me, “I’m a fixer”.

I actually began my creative, marketing & advertising journey by interning for young entrepreneur doing sales calls and I mean the “crack open the yellow pages and start dialing” sales call grind. After a few weeks with little success from my cold calling, I identified that by utilizing strategic print collateral and web design we could begin receiving inbound sales opportunities. So, every evening after the yellow-page sales day ended, I taught myself how to design supporting assets and just as I suspected, it worked like a charm. What I did not see coming was that those learned skills were actually creating a new trajectory that, over the last 15 years, has allowed me the privilege to work alongside many local and national brands, as well as start 9 unique brands of my own (with a select few loyal partners).
