My first love is of good design and it informs all the work I do.
As Billy Crystal used to say: "When you look marvelous you feel marvelous too".
I pride myself on clean light web design, thoroughly enjoy creating marketing pieces and promotions, love putting the finishing touches on a months long invitation design, and generally want to make you look good.
Marketing is like the air I breathe.
I have a hard time talking about anything without the gears turning trying to figure out how to promote it and make it bigger. It is a blessing as much as a curse.
I have managed and owned retail stores, have won regional merchandising awards from national companies and understand intimately the needs and limitations of small business.
From business organization and structuring to store design layout and sales promotions, I bring experience, enthusiasm, and energy to the table.
If i don't return your email right away- you know where I am...
I have been involved in bike and outdoor since I was in my late teens and have run the gamut from fitting shoes, to waxing skis; from years wrenching in bike shops, to management and eventually shop ownership. And now I work full time in the industry in design and marketing.
I get it. And I do it because I love it.
Balancing the creative side of my brain with the analytical, I deeply understand client retention and marketing, business planning and budgeting, but also know what it takes to create a marketing message that's a fit for your clients (and friends).
