Available Talent

B.D. | Paladin Los Angeles Candidate
Marketing VP/Director/Manager/Senior Writer

Available For:
Contract, Freelance, Direct Hire, Consulting

Ideal Position:
A position allowing me to use my creative skills, marketing background and/or non-profit fundraising skills to increase the ROI/bottom line of the company/organization I'm working with.

From CEO speeches to collateral materials to print/broadcast, I can write it all. And it will work

Ideal Environment:
One where I can deal with others professionally and personally; one in which creativity and marketing are a part of the corporate mix, not an afterthought when sales are down. To work with a company that gives back to those it serves.

Past Experience:
I've been a VP/Creative Director at Grey and JWT; I've been a CMO of two multi-billion dollar companies; I'm an award-winning writer (for direct mail written for SPRINT and Chevron); I've been a consultant to the CEO of an international software consulting company. I've built and led teams. I am at ease in the boardroom or mail room. I get the job done.

Currently:
I recently re-wrote a website for a non-profit that badly needed help. Because it dealt with severely handicapped children, it had to have a far different tone and feel than the original site. I re-created the site map, and re-wrote the entire site, from landing page to navigation bars to adding a donation page. It's now in its beta form. And working.

Additional:
I don't miss deadlines. And every job I am assigned will come in on time, on strategy, and on budget.

I believe in mentoring others, thus providing a succession plan for the company. Every person for whom I'm responsible will be given an opportunity to achieve their potential.

I'm intensely loyal and believe in the inherent goodness of others.
