How lucky am I. I’ve worked at many of the best ad agencies in the world — Y&R, Grey, J Walter Thompson, Ogilvy and BBDO among them. And then I had a chance to take everything I’d learned to tattoo direct + digital, the independent start-up where I was a founding partner, President and Chief Creative Officer. Over the years I’ve received hundreds of domestic and international awards, including Lifetime Achievement from the Canadian Marketing Association in 2000.
A true lover of brands, I have worked on some of the best — something I’m very proud of. Here are some of them:
