Building a Marketing Team? Do these 5 things first When building out a marketing function, there are an endless number of things you can do. And that’s the problem. Earlier this year, the Wall Street Journal reported that the average tenure of a Chief Marketing Officer dropped another 6 months in the past two years....Read More

2016 wasn’t the most prolific year for taking photos, but I still got in a few good shots. Let’s jump right in. Selfie, huh? I don’t take many, but I really love this one. I think it has more to do with Ollie’s expression, but this was a genuine moment caught with my iPhone. I’ll...Read More

I saw branding realized – the messaging, the visual philosophy, the format of the presentation and how different media all combined to reinforce the...Read More

The immediate disclaimer on this post is that I don’t own these watches. I admire them. I would like them. And one day, I might. But for now, I’m content in appreciating their design, status and allure. Here’s my belief on watches: A gentleman should own a classic timepiece. And he should invest in a...Read More

Las Vegas is a great photography town. A few years ago, I shared a post about honoring Las Vegas, as a way of introducing the lesser known gems in Sin City. This post made mention of The Neon Museum, a place I visited one afternoon in 2011. From their website – Founded in 1996, the...Read More
