    As a Creative/Brand Director with 15+ years of hands-on development and management experience for print and digital projects, I have helped several Fortune 500 companies and small businesses across a multitude of advertising/media verticals. From thumbnail concept sketches to large outdoor billboards and corporate wall displays, I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to work with some of the biggest brands in many industries. • Extensive experience in print and digital collateral, event, OOH, 360 advertising, branding, key art, and CPG for clients in entertainment, health/wellness/fitness, lifestyle, technology, and automotive industries • Punctual and prompt for quick turnaround/execution of simple or complex projects • I have helped clients and partnering design agencies double their growth and revenue while promoting constructive teamwork within fast-paced deadlines A good portion of any advertising is creating well targeted, carefully crafted writing for increased interest and traffic. With 10 of years ad agency experience, I've learned a few effective techniques to get to know desired customers on deeper levels and help brands communicate to them. Working with many reputable copywriters and clients has helped me construct relevant writing methods to grab viewers and keep them engaged. As part of good brand presentation, detailed proofreading of market materials is a part of my practice. Knowing the right tools, guide books, and practices to use is a key part of my finishing process. If your project is a design promo or a simple written piece of literature only, I can add that final polish to make sure all spelling and grammar are in line for the best grip on your audience. I'm always a fan of stirring up inspiration and evoking elevated involvement through clean, elegant prose.

    I'm Anthony, I can mainly design art cover for albums or singles. I like everything based around music. It won't matter what genre you are doing, I can make a design that will represent it. I will like if you tell me what you are going for and what designs work best for you! - I will likely take an hour to two hours to finish the cover art (If I don't submit the cover art in the first day, be sure to communicate with me) - Communication through the whole process is key for me - Contact me for other inquiries
