Portrait of me There I am, compulsively neat, the product of design school. I love sketching and thinking with just a pencil and paper — my favorite tools.
Hey! Nice to meet you.
Let me introduce myself. I'm Bob.
I create and supervise integrated conceptual campaigns including digital, television, print, outdoor, CRM and ambient. I design and orchestrate branded websites, mobile sites, social media content/microsites, cross-platform emails, banners including rich-media, you-name-it.
Accounts I work on tend to operate smoothly. I find the sweet spot between work that's creative and work that works. I listen to clients, and believe in collaboration. That doesn't mean I give in. It just means I enjoy the passionate discussion and hard work that it takes to get the work where it needs to be.
I love blue-skying with paper and pencil -- just talking about a project. I'm kind of passionate. I love hashing the idea out, pushing, poking holes, keeping it honest. It's something I believe just can't be short-changed: the thinking through of the work.
I knew I wanted to do this for a long time. Went to Parsons School of Design and The New School for Social Research in NYC to study advertising, design and communications. Before that I was up at Bradford College in northern Massachusetts, a tiny liberal arts school, discussing and debating and creating there too. It's what I love to do.
I'm skilled in Adobe CS. Equally comfortable with pencil and moleskine.
Some random facts about me.
I can draw. People seem delighted when an advertising art guy can actually draw. Check out some recent sketches.
I play clawhammer banjo and attend as many old time jam sessions as I can.
I brew beer from time to time.
I love Scotch, and tend to get philosophical when I drink it. Also, I think it tastes different in Scotland. See? Getting philosophical already. Let's discuss over a dram sometime.
