01 Why Me?
​
There are lots of choices, but I've got the goods!
Creative
Thinker
Media Tech
Obsessed
Collaboration
Over Ego
A
Creator
I look at everything through the lens of "Why is this done this way?". Knowing "why" past design decisions have been made lets me know what can change, to hopefully transend the norm.
We are at the dawn of a new age, there are so many new ways of communincating. I love exploring the proper use cases and potential benefits for new tech.
Great ideas need multiple eyes and brains on them to become extraordinary ideas.
Who comes up with the idea, is not important, just that the idea is born.
I never stop! It doesn't matter what I create, a painting, a sculpture, home projects, website, ebook, short movie. I'm never happier than when I have created something that didn't exist before my hands touched it.
02 PORTFOLIO
There is lots more where this came from...
Compelling Creative, Check. Exec Level Presentations, Check. Leaps of Faith, Check.
03 Software
More than just Creative Suite.
I love static, web, short form story-telling and motion (and I love them all equally).​
