    Global Warming Is Not a Myth. Science Is Not Arguing About It. And Yes, The World Is Not Flat

    Arguing with those who deny global warming can be frustrating… (they tend to be older and conservative) So how do you convince them? Well you start with the facts. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of the facts and evidence” [...]

    Why Conservative Pundits Are Begging For Another Terrorist Attack

    You would think that there are some things ALL Americans could agree on- like “hey… terrorist attacks are bad… for everyone”. But if you listen to the conservative right, you might hear some wishful thinking… Just last night Bill O’Reilly warned his viewers saying “The issue of terrorism could bring down the Obama administration; one [...]

    Sarah Palin Turkey Nightmare

    If you haven’t seen this video, definitely watch it- but not in front of the kids.  Especially if you want to have a normal Thanksgiving dinner.  Sarah Palin, like her or not (NOT), must either be incredibly stupid or incredibly misled by horrible PR.  Turkeys being slaughtered behind you as you talk about Oil prices [...]

    Savannah Ghosts

    Down for a Roadtrip? Maybe one that heads towards the southland? If so I have one little piece of advice for you: “be prepared to deal with the dead.” That is- if you believe in ghosts, which I do not…but a certain significant other does. And that’s why we landed at The Marshall House, [...]

    Do you Hulu?

    Hulu is now open to the public. If you haven’t checked it out, you should at least watch a few seasons of Arrested Development. It’s streaming ad-supported video, and the quality and selection could improve (and I expect eventually will), but Hulu is certainly looking in the right direction. I have a feeling once [...]

    Oil and You.

    We all like oil. It goes into almost everything around us. The plastic bottle of water, the car you drive, the heat in your house. What a great gift from the past. What a fascinating natural resource. The problem is that when we burn oil it releases carbon into our atmosphere, which causes [...]

    The Future of Your TV

    This New York Times Article got me thinking: Where do we get our entertainment from? Where will we get it 5 years from now? 10 Years? Think about it…In the beginning there was just a TV. This little box has since entertained and informed an entire planet. Lately technology has changed the [...]

Summary

As a creative producer of broadcast and interactive projects, I have experience working on large-scale jobs, managing creative, account and interactive teams in order to take a project from a creative vision to finished product. (All the while keeping costs in line and schedules intact.) I have a burning interest in emerging web technologies, and I am constantly thinking of new ways to turn breakthrough creative ideas into real, useful social web/mobile applications. I've worked on brands such as Comcast Cable, Pfizer, Hasbro, Olive Garden, Dairy Queen, Advil, Robitussin, and Pringles...
