How would you describe your dream job in 10 words or less?

Substantively purposeful, stimulating, collaborative, interpersonal, challenging, dynamic, cause-driven, and fulfilling.

(That's 10 words - or just 120 characters, versus the 4000 maximum allowed...)

How would you describe your time at Total Image Worx?

Superb! Confucius is reputed to have said that the person who loves what they do will never have to work another day in their life, and I totally agree with this ancient wisdom - which pretty much sums up my daily experience at Total Image Worx!

Each one of here feel blessed to be able to work
with so many bright, successful and otherwise outstanding people who, being true professionals in every conceivable sense of the word, engage us as team members and close collaborators in all of our client campaign and project engagements.

Half the fun is to work with clients who are progressive-minded enough to give us opportunities to pioneer new and creatively developed ways to push the envelope to optimize ROMI and ROO through carefully crafted and executed strategic PR, marcom and communications initiatives that aim to inform with new knowledge, stimulate the senses, or market (B2B and B2C) to drive business objectives in ways that - in ways large and small - help to make ours a happier, more productive and execiting world to live in.

How would you describe your time at Carmella's Cappuccino & Esp...?

Not everyone is motivated or disciplined enough to fulfill their entrepreneurial desires, so I'm certainly blessed to have had the opportunity to do so with carmella's, which my partner and I took from start-up zero nothingness to a company with annual gross sales of over $750K after its first 3 years of operation.

It was a labor of love - a success that was achieved not without the "collateral damage" of lost sleep, evaporated family time and hefty doses of blood, sweat and tears on the part of all involved, management as well as the company's 10 other employees.

Given the chance to pursue another entrepreneurial start-up with a business model that's as successful as this one proved itself, I'd leap at the opportunity in a New York minute.
