Hi,

I’m Sheldon (I was rockin’ the name way before that guy on ‘The Big Bang Theory’).

I’m a Creative Director and Creative Leader.

I love people and inspiring them to do their best work. I love seeing the spark of something great and turning it into a blazing fire. This is how I’ve led award-winning creative teams.

I understand brands. I understand that a brand is a person’s gut feeling about a product or service and that people relate to them through emotional connections. I know how to foster these connections. I’ve built world-class brands this way.

I understand business. I know what role design plays in a company’s success and how to leverage this advantage. I’ve launched several businesses and have built several world-class brands including Dissolve, Veer, Corbis, Getty Images and Adobe Systems. I’ve also played Taking Care of Business on Randy Bachman’s guitar!

I’m proud to say “I’ve never worked a day in my life” because what I’ve been so fortunate to be a part of is not work to me. The art of branding and the craft of great design are what fill my cup.

We should talk.
