A reputation isn't something that just happens. It's something that is built, fostered and fine tuned. I respect the efforts my clients have put into getting to where they are and I expect the same.

I've spent years working hard and delivering on high expectations. And because I've put such an emphasis on doing the right thing, I've developed a network of trusted industry experts that share a mutual respect. Designers, developers, photographers, videographers, producers and print vendors. All available to call on for any project. They know I expect best efforts and appreciate expertise.

Every new chapter of my life is an opportunity to continue to build on that reputation and it's something I don't take lightly.

Want to know what makes me tick? Check it out these eight values.

1. Creative

One of the biggest reasons people choose to work with me is my ability to effectively execute creative ideas. Sometimes the best solution for an organization is a simple solution. However, sometimes an unexpected and unconventional idea is needed. I can handle any level of creative effort and am able to deliver great results.

2. Open Communication

I'm a creative professional, not a sensitive artist. So let’s have an honest conversation about what works and what doesn’t. Transparency with clients has always netted me superb results. Once I recognize your objectives and you know how I work, great results will follow.

3. Multi-Dimensional

I'm a one man creative department. I've been cross-trained in a wide range of art, advertising, marketing and design disciplines in order to maximize creative potential. Good ideas come from all people. And great ideas come from holistic thinkers able to see a concept work in more than one medium.

4. Positivity

I keep a positive attitude. Toward my work and toward the future. This optimistic outlook in my life as well as with my work for clients has helped me achieve success. My clients seem to like my “The glass is half full, maybe even over-flowing attitude.” I'm an optimist. Call it a character flaw.

5. Approachable

I come from a humble background. Growing up I worked on farms, in oil fields and in factories. That work ethic is part of my DNA and I've applied it to advertising and design. So when you choose me, you won’t be hiring a design diva, you’ll be hiring an honest, hard-working design professional. I'll roll up my sleeves and get down to business.

6. Sense of Humor

Advertising and marketing should be enjoyable and fun for clients and creatives a like. I do serious work; I just have fun doing it. I enjoy what I do. And I enjoy who I do it with--my clients.

7. Average is not Exceptional

Stop accepting “this is how we’ve always done it.” Years ago someone decided to do something boring. So why should you keep being bored? If you’re tired of getting the same flat ideas from your creative team, contact me. I don’t do average.

8. Respect

There have been many times in my career I've heard "The client is stupid." Well, I don't believe that. I have great appreciation for my clients. I understand how hard it is to build a business and I don’t take any aspect of a considerate working relationship for granted. I’ve learned that a mutual respect for each other’s accomplishments and goals will result in positive outcomes for all.
