I often rely on this line to describe who we are and what we do:

“Spark Creative (Brooklyn) is an experienced team of writers, marketers and visual communication experts. Clients who want to better connect with their customers rely on us for persuasive copy, effective marketing, and compelling design.”

But, I realize this site has been missing a page that provides more depth on our capabilities, experience, and backstory. So, here’s a bit more about myself and the team:

Leverage A Wide Range of Capabilities
You could say I’m a communications/marketing generalist. But I also specialize.

I have a history of working in smaller firms where you’re expected to be resourceful and contribute in many different ways. Therefore, I have gained a great deal of experience and wide range of capabilities to contribute toward the success of any business project. I’m a content developer, strategist, copywriter, producer, marketing director, designer, social media manager, video script writer, and more.

At Spark Creative, I’m principally involved in research, writing, strategy, content development, proposals, business development, design, project management, web development, video script production, campaign analytics, and social media marketing.

The Approach
When crafting copy, I emphasize main benefits using short, clear sentences and paragraphs. I prefer utilizing active, benefit headlines to help reinforce the value proposition. I’ve become quite good at breaking down complex/abstract ideas like software, hardware, and solutions into simple visuals and language that is easily understood by your prospective audience.

The Experience
Publishing, technology, and business-to-business (B2B) have certainly been focuses over many years. I’ve also acquired in-depth knowledge on major industries like healthcare, finance, legal, education, manufacturing, and ad tech. I understand software, hardware, document imaging, document management — plus enterprise applications and automating business processes in-depth as well.

I began my career in the publishing world, then moved between publishing and marketing communication firms. I must credit my first boss who mentored me on copywriting and strategy in ways you just couldn’t replicate at school.

I’m well versed in Adobe Creative Suite applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Dreamweaver. Also quite handy in WordPress, MailChimp, and other online applications.

Founding Spark Creative
In 2005 I began working with clients such as Avaya, Canon USA, Cushman & Wakefield, and Motorola at a marketing communications firm located in the SoHo neighborhood of New York City called The Keating Concept. This role evolved into a partnership with the agency’s owner in 2008. We wound down that agency so we could launch Spark Creative that year.

Since 2010, I’ve been guiding the Spark Creative team. In addition to work that has carried over from the old agency, I’ve developed working relationships with clients such as Accuen, Canon Latin America, Canon Canada, Canon Imaging & Information Solutions, Collective, Manufacturing Executive, PROfoot, Project Ricochet, and more.
