SENIOR CREATIVE SERVICES MANAGER
As the business grew from a $250 million-dollar company to a $2 billion-dollar company, the creative team quickly evolved its design standards, processes, and strategic thinking on how to make enterprise management software fun in an otherwise "unfun" industry.
Over the course of 11 years, I built the in-house creative services organization of 17 talented team members. I introduced and formalized the creative processes, marketing request and digital asset management systems. I frequently directed and produced creative content. By the time I departed Quest Software, our team had completed over 9450 requests for various video, print, online and event deliverables.

Campaigns at Quest Software would range differently based on the size, duration and budget. Each campaign would have its own unique marketing mix. The SQL Server Rock Star campaign had a number of marketing deliverables across the board: print ads, online ads, trade shows and videos.

Annual Kickoff Sales Conference
It's that time of the year again to get your sales pump on!
Role: Senior Creative Services Manager
At the beginning of the year, sales and marketing organized a large conference to take a look at the year ahead and rally around our common goals. In addition to running the conference, marketing was tasked with developing a creative theme that would compliment the company's business objectives and entrepreneurial spirit.

ABOUT ME
Thanks for checking out my portfolio. I'm currently the creative director at Realidyne. Prior to Realidyne, I held creative management positions at Monster VR, Neudesic and Quest Software. I’m both a skilled practitioner of traditional marketing and a specialist in the emerging world of augmented reality, virtual reality and generative AI. My work approach is simple: do your due diligence, develop a creative strategy, and use the perfect blend of technologies to launch your story to higher heights. At the end of the day, it's all about moving audiences and inspiring action.
I graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a bachelor's degree in English Literature and a minor in Economics. I'm Google Digital Marketing and E-commerce certified, and I'm obsessed with generative AI. I live in Laguna Hills, California, with my wife, 2 sons, 2 daughters, 2 cats, and 3 angel fish.
In my next life, I plan on being a mix of Walt Disney and Pope Francis.
