It's Amazing What Four Colors Can Do
Cyan. Magenta. Yellow. Black.
On their own, they're not the most attractive colors. Put them together with some nice creative and you'll be suprised what you can get.
But it's no surprise that some of these ads -- seen in publications throughout the country -- are award winners.
My role on the following ads varied. Some were just resizes. Some were my new concepts. Whether they were meant to promote a lifestyle or move millions of dollars worth of inventory, all of them were exactly what the client wanted.

Consider this:
If I've only been working in interactive the last five months and my work with the medium is this clean, consider what my skills in print are after four years of real world experience and many more years of practice.
Let's take a look at my portfolio and see what we can build together.

Social Networking
Is Social Networking not the greatest thing ever? If you have the ability to spell, and even for the millions who don't, there is a place for you on the Internet! And why shouldn't businesses take a slice of that big, free Social Networking pie?
While it's not the first time a company or community tried a Blog or a MySpace, the aesthetically pleasing ones are few and far between.
The following are two samples of creative, fresh out of concepting and live on the Web. My role on both projects was interactive design, using elements from previous creative, and light programming.

Direct eMail ...
Because it's not SPAM if you asked for it.
Occasionally, our clients want a way to reach their clients in a fast, easy to use electronic medium. But what's the easiest way to reach thousands of contacts instantly?
eBlasts.
From inventory ads to open house events and grand openings, one of the most cost-effective ways to reach a customer is by using e-mail -- and knowing the right way to eBlast makes all the difference. Making attractive, functional e-mails isn't always pretty. Until now.
Below are screen shots from a few of our many successful campaigns.
My role on all of the featured eBlasts included concepting, art direction and HTML programming.
