Doug combines a passion for writing and design with a background in marketing and production into an all-consuming lifestyle of work, work, (play), work. With a career that spans TV, theme parks, corporate events and media production, Doug knows how to inspire an audience with immersive and exciting environments. In recent years he's worked with Microsoft, Intel, IBM, Lucent Technologies, Skechers, Disney, Universal Studios, Time Warner/Six Flags, Nickelodeon, Kmart, Ford/Visteon, Yamaha, MasterCard and American Express. Along the way, Doug produced and directed dozens of award-winning media pieces -- 13 Tellys and Cindys, a dozen international media/keynote tours, numerous product launches, and untold numbers of scripts, proposals, and event environments of all kinds. He began his career assisting on major marketing events for Walt Disney World and Universal Studios Florida where he later worked to develop co-operative television projects in the variety, talk and sports genres. A yen for the big city impelled him to move to Manhattan where he starved, went deep and got creative. He soon freelanced his way across the country, through Las Vegas and to Los Angeles where he now resides.
