Vincent LoPresti

The story is this: I'm a creative director with a background in art direction and design - who writes.

I've worked at some big shops and spent six years running my own smaller place. Done work for the behemoth national clients and helped launch more than a few little ones.

I'm proud to have helped develop some incredibly talented writers and art directors over the years, and happy to have won a few accolades for myself along the way.
