Highlights
I feel extremely fortunate to be doing what I love. Every day presents new and interesting scripts, whether for an existing client or someone who is new to my network; I always look forward to seeing what is next and work to deliver beyond their expectations.
My formal education includes a BA in Radio & Television performance, with a double-minor in Theatre and Spanish (Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, Class of '88).
After college, I spent 20 years as a Creative Director for a number of radio stations, constantly encouraging Theatre of the Mind to deliver an effective message.
Today, I am self-employed and anticipate each opportunity to be a part of someone's new venture - whether it's a commercial, narrative, or simply a phone-hold message - everyone has a perspective on life that they'd like to share, and I'd like to help.
Thanks for visiting my site. Derek
