    I am deeply passionate about creative endeavors that have the potential to positively impact the world, which is why I chose to pursue a degree in the business of film and television at DePaul University. With a concentration in directing, though it is my primary focus, I often find myself immersed in screenwriting, producing, and acting. Currently, I am directing and producing social media content for HS Dent LLC, as well as spearheading a Western animation project while continually refining my storytelling skills through writing. My true specialty lies in communicating a vision and creating a visceral connection for the audience. If you have any projects aligned with my expertise, I'm eager to collaborate and bring stories to life.

    Hello, my name is Matthew Lew. I am an artist, product designer, freelance extraordinaire – call me whatever gets you excited about beautiful spaces and products. I juggle design like a pro, illustrate like a boss, and create home décor that may cause spontaneous dance parties, uncontrollable joy, and guests asking "where did you get that?!" I make life beautiful, from pixels to pillows. I dream in Pantone swatches, live for a good statement wall, and can whip up a killer tablescape design faster than you can say "charcuterie board." I have expertise in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Procreate. I am skilled at designing home good products and an in depth knowledge of home materials including textiles, ceramics, metals, etc. I have impressive time-management and organizational skills with strong verbal and written communications. I've got enthusiasm, creativity, and an eye for detail which provides a team with a positive, problem-solving approach. I have a strong awareness of the marketplace and ability to analyze and apply trends to product development/design. I'm an "idea person" who is genuinely excited by the industry and passionate about design. I have a self-motivated approach to projects, with the ability to work both independently and collaboratively as part of a team.

    I'm a tabletop game designer and developer who also creates media for game publishers. The majority of my work has been dedicated to designing card-driven miniature games that blend the interactivity of the former with the dynamic play space engagement of the latter, with the mission to make miniature gaming more accessible through novel design rather than sheer simplification. As a designer, I approach each project by deep-diving into the subject matter, and then applying the ideology that all mechanics must be justified by theme, and the theme must be enhanced by those mechanics. This process leads to games that encapsulate the essence of the subject material and provide a thematically uncompromised experience for players. Whether you're looking for a designer for your upcoming game, consultation on your existing project, or someone with a rich history of production, post-production, and graphic design to help create content and assets for your game, I can help.

    Hi, I'm new to Upwork, but not new to business consulting. I'm here to help you take your startup or early stage business to the next level as your advisor & strategist. About me: I am the founder of two tech companies, CampfireSocial & Pet Gotcha Day, and I've raised over $1M+ from investors. I am a 24 year award winning global business strategy & insights veteran who has worked for companies such as SC Johnson, Kraft, Nestle, Kimberly-Clark, Dude Wipes, MillerCoors, Heineken, GoMacro, the Illinois State Lottery, Story Street Labs (startup), Pharmavite, Calvono (startup), VisionTech Robotics (startup), various Private Equity firms, Freeman, GES, the American Library Association, the Audiovisual and Integrated Experience Association (AVIXA), the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), the National Retail Federation (NRF) and more. My experience includes ideation, brand development, market research, creating roadmaps, developing your go-to-market strategy, fixing & optimizing companies, SaaS product development, strategic planning, angel & VC funding strategies, product & packaging innovation, defining operational strategies and translating insights into action. I am available for general C-Level consulting, serving as your fractional Chief Product Officer or fractional CEO, conducting market research & focus group moderation, & leading product development and full product lifecycle opportunities. Please reach out. I'd love to learn more about your goals and help you bring them to fruition. I bill at $125/hr but open to payment/equity hybrid models. Masked case studies & references available upon request. Due to the nature of my work, I sign NDAs and keep all work output completely confidential. You’ll want your deliverables kept confidential too. Here are a few quotes from my clients: 1. Erica's ability to conduct insightful interviews with market leaders is impressive. She approached each conversation with an in depth understanding of our objectives, asked thoughtful questions, and gained valuable insights. She took the time to thoroughly understand the nuances of our industry, which allowed us to make well-informed decisions. Her contributions were invaluable in shaping our market strategy. I would highly recommend Erica to anyone seeking a skilled and reliable market researcher. I wouldn’t be able to get through this process without your help! – Tyler, VisionTech Robotics 2. Erica did an excellent job in recruiting and interviewing candidates for a market research project for our company. She was creative with our budget and always adapted to meet our needs. She is professional and timely. She was able to extract truly unique perspectives and provide tangible action steps. Her professionalism, flexibility, and quick responses made working with her a pleasure. – Gopal, Calvono 3. I've had the pleasure of partnering with Erica on several shopper insights projects over the past 3+ years. She is intelligent, dynamic and creative, not afraid to speak her mind with an assertiveness backed by a fresh perspective. She has full command of the research issues of every project, while always understanding context and keeping her eye on the ultimate marketing objectives. She thinks strategically but switches to tactical mode, when needed, on the turn of a dime (or whatever coin people pivot on these days). She brings an innovations mindset to shopper insights because she has that ideal balance of creativity and analytical skills. She is also a lot of fun to be with. When traveling across the country, often multiple cities on consecutive days, it's a bonus to like the people you work with. Erica is kind and not only has a wonderful sense of humor, she is funny herself. She is a great verbal sparring partner and a keen observer of human behavior, whether the subject is the research or things going on in the culture or the next table over. Perhaps the biggest testament to someone's character is what they bring out in other people. Collaborating with Erica spurs me to better thinking and better results, and she helps keep me on top of my game. – Marc, ERP
