I am an Asian American Art Director. That's right,
I am the point where East meets West,
and left brain mixes with right brain.
And, with all the Power Bars I eat, I put out
enough energy to light up the whole building.
No wonder there is craziness.
But please don't take this the
wrong way. All that energy is harnessed for
peaceful purposes, and I am always under control. (At least that's what
I think.)
In fact, this web site was built with some of that extra energy. This is
not a personal
ad. It is designed primarily to show my passion for my work as an Art Director,
to share and exchange my philosophies and knowledge in advertising, and
finally,
to express my personality. Please pass my URL around if you like my web
site.
I hope it'll lead me to some freelance work. Better yet, maybe a new job.
Over all, I'll try not to bore
anyone with too much text information,
plus I'll keep my resume short and sweet. If you have a craving for good
stories,
please take a detour to a writer's page. So, bear with me, and feel free
to roam
around. Don't forget to sign my guest book, and let me know what you think.
I've always had a passion for
art. But my advertising career didn't take off
until I met John Chepelsky in '85 at what was then Werner/Chepelsky &
Partners,
and is now Bozell Kamstra. John taught me everything from the art of Hot
Matel
Type to the art of drinking micro-brew and picking up women. Thanks to
Chepelsky,
my style became polished, and I learned how to trust and follow my gut
instinct.
I believe in good creative over
profit, craftsmanship over mass production,
looking over every design detail, including 6pt type, and never forgetting
to
have fun at the 11th hour while mounting the presentation for the next
morning.
Which brings me back to why I hand-built this web site. I want to attract
people
with this same kind of thinking, and hopefully work with them in the near
future.
When you browse through my portfolio page, it should give you a better
idea
of who I am as an art director.
