Experience

Seasoned just right.

Before going it alone more than 20 years ago, I co-owned a creative agency and earlier worked at a technology marketing firm, a startup software company and an international industrial manufacturer. That experience adds up, and my clients benefit. Here’s a snapshot of my background. Looking for details? Download a list of clients and projects. Then contact me soon.
