The following snapshots of marketing and communications projects will give you a good idea of the range of my conceptual, design, and editorial experience. My goal is always to add some novelty while respecting the client's short- and long-term goals and philosophy of doing business.

 

CLIENT: MARSH

Publication design (concept, illustration, layout, and production management) for a series of books produced by the leading risk-management consultancy

1997 Insurance Market Review & Forecast: Project management as well as design of logo, graphical user interface, and CD-ROM packaging.

This was the client's first attempt to link traditional corporate communications with leading-edge multimedia. We made a great deal up as we went along, held our breath more than once, and managed (with terrific teamwork) to carry it off to everyone's pride and satisfaction.

   

CLIENT:
JOHNSON & HIGGINS

Concept,
d
esign, text, programming, and internal promotion for the company's first Website

This was done in the Bronze Age of the early '90's, when a company's management didn't necessarily understand why it should expend its time and resources on the mysterious entity called the Web.

Eventually they got the point.

   

CLIENT:
JOHNSON & HIGGINS

Logos/corporate identification for major annual industry event

corporate intranet site

"Think" had long been central to the company's culture. The challenge here was to add some novelty while staying
on-message.

 

   

CLIENT:

Prototype for micro-targeted weekly executive summary:
Our task was to take one week's issue of
The Economist
and condense the articles by up to 90% while maintaining the magazine's distinctive voice.

When the Editor saw the result, he didn't realize we had changed his text at all.
