In a hurry? No problem-o. Here's an abridged tour of some digital projects I concepted, wrote, and edited together with some jammin' tunes.* Hopefully it will be worth your 2:30.
So crank it up, sit back, and enjoy!

For nearly 3 years, I was "the voice" for Converse online. I wrote and concepted and nearly everything, including the main branding site, microsites, stores, email, banners and beyond.
In addition to exceeding aggressive sales goals, the site won numerous awards and was featured in the CA Interactive Annual two years in-a-row.
“First and foremost, our kudos go out regarding the store’s product descriptions. Anyone who writes knows how difficult it is to be inventive with repetitive content needs; instead of writing bland product descriptions, this writer took the effort to include facts and anecdotes that makes the descriptions original, story-like and interesting.”

Looking to reboot an iconic basketball brand, generate some enthusiasm internally, and establish some benchmarks for moving forward, Keith Crawford hired me to craft a new manifesto for Jordan. A small run of books were printed and distributed to staff and key stakeholders. Mike got one, too.
