• Advertising Services

• Principal, Managing Director

  • Dec 2014 - Present

  dilate is an end-to-end digital strategy, marketing, and management consulting company focused on delivering innovative yet simple and creative solutions to complex business problems. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is where I took all my learnings and professional experience and started my own company. I am on a quest to bring art back into advertising by providing a strategic conduit between traditional artists and brands/businesses. The elevator pitch is this. No one looks at marketing anymore. Emails, videos, banner ads, graphics, informational handouts - thanks to a disposable creation process, it is all the same. Advertising, especially digital advertising, is expected, redundant and, to be honest, a nuisance. While the industry continues to pursue automation and efficiencies through technology, dilate will bring back the ways of the old world and usher in the return of art to advertising. Painting, sculpture, performance, sound and more. All hand built. dilate will harness the power, the emotion and the captivation of traditional art and transform it into something uniquely engaging and applicable for the modern marketing industry. All projects will be strategically created to get people to look, spend time and share, your message, service or product. Show less

  • Apr 2008 - Sep 2009

  This is where I learned the impact of creative advertising. Distill a brand to its core principals, understand how those principles affect culture, apply to all work. Basically, a mash up of sociology, psychology, brand strategy and brilliance. Activision (Guitar Hero): TV American Express: TV, web Nike Running: TV, web Old Navy: TV, radio, web My time at Crispin Porter was invaluable. I was lucky enough to work on exciting accounts that created globally recognized advertising, both traditional and interactive. I learned the ins and outs of everything, from the complexity of the creative process to how to manage multiple departments. As a content manager, I was responsible to ensure the creative, production, traffic, account, and planning departments worked together in a timely manner to deliver ad campaigns that actually grew business during the "recession." We won some awards, so that was cool too. While some people leave CP+B bitter, I'm glad I had the chance to experience the "factory" in all its glory. Show less
