CLIFF NOTE 18 YEAR BACKGROUND
I am an award-winning Art Director presently living in Las Vegas NV. Originally from Philadelphia PA where I worked at all the big Philly ad agencies. Handled blue chip clients such as ARAMARK, Deloitte and Touche, PECO Energy, SEPTA Transit, Sam Adams Beer, Bell Atlantic/Verizon, Comcast, Temple University, Isuzu, Tenet Healthcare, Lancaster General Hospital, The Franklin Mint, AMP just to name a few.

In 1999, I left the agency world to handle some freelance clients on my own. Soon, an opportunity arose to open up a new online Brazilian swimwear company with my wife. I left advertising almost completely to help create and launch the Fiu Fiu! clothing brand. Since that time I have been busy getting Fiu Fiu! noticed and running the website. We've appeared in countless magazines (usually for free with the right PR) including Sports Illustrated (the grand daddy of them all), Oxygen, Musclemag, Ocean Drive..the list goes on - . Our first professional model became a Playmate of the Year in 2006 and we had two other models achieve Playmate of the month. We were mentioned on the Howard Stern show, MTV and the Travel Channel. Currently, Fiu Fiu! has thousands of satisfied customers and subscribers and the brand is extremely strong. Most importantly, we doubled billings every summer season.

But. Seeing the thrill of a client make a big sale is never tiresome. Witnessing an Ad shop owner winning a new business pitch...or seeing an ad I created appear in a magazine or newspaper is still a natural high for me.
Advertising is in my blood and I miss it deeply.

I come with great references. I work quickly and accurately on the Mac Platform and I give my all to every assignment that crosses my desk - whether it's a 2 million dollar annual report or a logo for a local personal trainer. Plus, being a business owner myself, I know the importance of staying within budget. If you wish to find out even more about me, please drop me a line at 702.772.3586 (cell) or at tim@fiufiu.com.

Please enjoy my portfolio below...I wanted to show in it the vast array of projects, accounts and branding I have been apart of over the years.
