My first paying gig was in Fifth Grade. Classmates would commission me to draw sketches of the middle finger. It was underground. Risqué.
Eventually, the principal shut it all down. But not before I discovered my love of creating things in which others find value. Today, as a product developer, creative copywriter, patent holder and business owner, there's one word that sums up all my roles: inventor. I might design something substantial like a standing desk, or write things as intangible as content videos and website copy. No matter the task, companies hire me to come up with—and execute—ideas that delight people who buy their products and services. Sometimes this process involves David Hasselhoff. Let's talk. Hit me up on LinkedIn, or just email me. Ok bye. -JOE |
