MY STORY (SHORT VERSION)
MY STORY (SHORT VERSION)
I am a professional Creative Designer, Artist / Filmographer and a Musician (With awards and recognitions in every one of those categories). Proficient and fluent in Digital and Traditional arts; Currently on the position of a Sr. Art Director at Team Detroit, an advertising agency who’s main accounts include Ford, Lincoln, Purina and the others. (The Agency was born by merging 4 advertising gigants – J.W.Thompson, Wunderman, Oglivy, Y&R.) I have previously worked on similar position at the Agency Campbell Ewald (on a Chevy Digital account), and before that I’ve freelanced as a design consultant in Europe. I also worked for several companies in the USA (Including ASU Solutions in Santa Clara, CA, Harpoon Media & TallFree Solutions in Southfield, MI, Hersch’s and more). Currently, I also hold a title of a Head Creative Director at StaPhocused, a Chicago-based media / production company. I am a founder of several Design websites – like PunkGraphic.com (my website design micro-agency), Scarab13.com (my design templates), CreativeArtMarket.com (more templates), DownloadSoho.com (pro tools for photographers), ScaryPoster.com (horror templates…). I am also a semi-pro musician (see under Music & Discography).
