Strategic thinking. Creative concepts. Excellent executions. It's creativity that creates results. That's what I’m all about. Be it Banking or Baseball. Car ads to get your heart racing, or pharma drugs to calm it down,
or a healthy dose of vitamins, or Social Marketing of Sushi.
Whether it's drawn from years of doing powerful consumer ads, or from my vast B2B experience,
I can find the creative solution that can drive results. I’m great at presenting concepts, and selling marketing
plans to clients. My people skills allows me to excel at leading a meeting and inspiring any group. New Business Wins: I've pitched and won the following businesses: LasikPlus Vision Centers,
