For the past three years I have owned and operated a very successful full-service advertising agency, Wellspring Advertising. As sole owner and operator comes the responsibility of being both the Executive in day-to-day operations as well as the Art and Creative Director in providing the design and execution of multiple projects. This experience lends itself to the importance of pure multitasking and Project Management. I feel that this would add such a educated and informed asset to any organization. The experience certainly allows for a better understanding of the methodology of Media, Design and Marketing and helps better communicate any message.
I have over 20+ years of experience in Media Arts as Cinematographer, Director, Producer and First Assistant Director. I am fluent in all aspects of Production - concept to creation - and can execute any size production. With this experience, I know the language and the processes that can help create and maintain media relationships and garner results.
I have worked in my current profession since graduating high school. I believe, though, in experience more than education at times. Yes, I want to see a degree hanging on the wall of a doctor or lawyer I may visit, but I would take an experienced graphic designer who has been working in the "trenches" for many years rather than a fresh-faced kid clutching a piece of paper with absolutely no real-world experience. I have done this before as a business owner and I strongly stand by my decisions. I trust that any organization sees the more senior and seasoned candidate as the desirable one.
