Occasionally asked questions       

Why hire me? 
Because I'm one of the sharpest pencils in the cup – quickly understanding your business and your marketplace.  Because I deliver experience, smarts and creative zing... and always a ton of out-of-the park solutions, a few of which are, admittedly, out of left field.  

Can you send me your resume?
Even better, here’s a link.

What's the one piece of advice you'd give to aspiring copywriters? 
Take a poetry class.  Poetry, like great copy, conveys meaning with an economy of words.  Also, poetic devices like rhyme, alliteration and meter are not accidents. Before there was writing, people had to remember verse. And... Melodic messaging is much more memorable.

What are three cool things we should know about you?
I scored a goal in a hockey game at Staples Center.  I've earned money for performing stand-up comedy, playing scrabble and doing astrophysics research.  I'm a three-day Jeopardy! champion.

What did you mess up on?
Before Mecca, Mohammed and his followers turned toward this city to pray... (Go ahead, google it. Or better, call me.)

What's that thing on the back of your arm?
It's a birthmark.
