About me

Tradesman

For as long as I can remember I've been fascinated by communication - sharing information, ideas, and values. Be it advertising and marketing campaigns, or application development, or project management, communicating ideas and enthusiasm is always a key goal for me. My father was in marketing and I watched him write copy and create campaigns for internal and external communication that helped teach and motivate employees, reward performance and loyalty, and incite new business. I learned a lot from him. Today those same values still drive me; To use communication to empower, to motivate, and inspire.

Education

I graduated from Southwest Texas State in 1998 with a BA in Communication Design.

Work

Over the past twenty years I have worked for three agencies and spent many years doing freelance work.

Alongside my work in advertising and marketing, I also offered training in design and publishing software and web programming.

Currently I am employed at Quadient Shipping in southern France, where I have participated in a broad range of fascinating projects.

Aside from application development work, I have helped manage international markets, improved processes, and led international project efforts.
