Our mantra is "Clients with Fire." The companies that get the most out of us are VC/PE firms, well-funded start-ups, entrepreneurs and companies ready to break through to the next level of distribution and sales. These types of clients aren't looking for marginal improvement; they're on the attack, because the competition wants to destroy them, consumers want to ignore them and still, they have the audacity to think they can win We share that audacity. We've demonstrated it for clients such as Naked Juice, Atkins Nutritionals, Corazonas Foods, Chiquita, Fresh Express, Dots, Activate Drinks, Hunter Douglas, Janus, Red Robin, Noodles & Company, KC Masterpiece and more. Thanks for reading.

My work experience is diverse, but one commonality is success. By providing creative insight and exceptional customer service, I have helped my past employers thrive. I want to bring my experience and creativity to your team. Throughout my career I learned to research, communicate creatively, and problem solve in chaotic environments. These skills have led to the following successes: - Research Dynamo - As the Marketing & Research Assistant for Persuasion Strategies, I conduct research into new academic findings with implications on juries and legal advocacy. This research is used in presentations and in our blog, Litigation PostScript. - Creative Communicator - During an average workday with Deutsche Bank London I would discuss a project with my South African coworker, confirm a trade with a Japanese client, and teach a work process to our support team in India. In order for me to be successful, I had to find ways to communicate clearly with a diverse audience. I am just as comfortable talking with an old friend as I am dancing as a lotto ball for the Colorado Lottery (and there are pictures to prove it). - Chaos Unraveler - For Persuasion Strategies, I organize projects on time and within budget, at locations across the country for Fortune 500 clients. This includes booking venues and catering, organizing research questionnaires, and anything else to get the job done. - Globetrotter - I bring a global perspective to everything I do. I can recommend the best pubs in London, the most glorious hike in Romania, and regale an audience with tales of Ngorogoro Crater in Swahili. My life goal is to explore a new country for every year of my life.

Nothing is more satisfying to me than when a team, and each person on the team, is enabled to reach beyond what’s already been done and produce work that is truly inspired.

Loving food and the restaurant culture is always a constant and I eat more salad in a week than most people do in a year, that's one of the many reasons why I love my job. Some of my goals are to grow the MAD Greens brand into a household name and in and around Colorado in the next 5 years, launch a viral website & social media campaign, develop a broad/integrated/detailed and memorable marketing campaign that makes people love MAD Greens and laugh at the same time. Ultimately I want to inspire people to eat healthy, feel good and live well.

Terry Morris

I think advertising is a lot like music, and if you can find the right riffs you've got a pretty good shot at making grown men act like 14-year old girls. Hit those same riffs in the wrong sequence, and you’ll end up with an angry mob of drunken sailors tossing empty beer bottles at you. Now don’t get me wrong, I fully realize that I have much to learn, and I don’t mean to sound as if I’ve got it all figured out. What I do know is that if you're looking for a quirky dreamer with a true passion for advertising and impeccable taste in music, I'm definitely looking for a place to call home.
