“I help creatives, with full-time jobs, get their personal projects completed without losing quality time with friends or family.”
For as long as I can remember I’ve been experimenting and creating with my ideas — but I never really finished a project of any kind of scale because I had all the time in the world and I could “do it later”.
Then I got a job.
Then a wife.
Then a kid.
The time that was solely mine quickly became limited and it forced me to focus on what was really important.
I used this new focused time to finally complete my creative projects:
3-year run of The Spark & The Art podcast where I interviewed film directors, animators, songwriters, novelists, improv actors and more.
A 5-song EP of original songs of love-soaked heartache and wanderlust.
First self-published kids' book Going to the Zany Zoo with accompanying music and activity pack (5 original songs, colouring book, tatoos, glow-in-the-dark wrist band)
Second self-published kids' book Gary the Gargoyle: A new school means new friends
From my time working as a designer, in both start-ups and in billion-dollar communications companies, is Design is simply communication.
Communicating with:
Everything I learned from my personal projects helped me grow in my career.
Everything I learned in my career helped my personal projects.
Everything I learned from both of them is now the Off-Hours Creative™ framework.
This is a 6-step success path
