Awards

Recognition is always nice. 

Although I’ve never wholeheartedly chased awards, early on in my career, I knew that if I consistently strived for work that engaged people and was work people remembered, I’d be in a good place. And yes, some of my work impressed juries and was awarded both nationally and internationally.  But some of my favourite work which drove business and is still talked about on Youtube didn’t even win a bonze.  Sometimes you just don’t know what a jury will like. 

As I mentioned, recognition is always nice. In this crazy business, a pat on the back can go a long way. I still remember Judy John would say thank you by having me take my wife to a great restaurant for a nice dinner.  It was no hardware, but it’s something I’ll never forget.

Below is just a partial list of some of my other highlights:
