DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS GROUP - Key Persons
Our mission is to add value to our clients and those we connect with not just from a business standpoint, but also on a personal level. We approach our partnerships with certain principles that translate to successful marketing endeavors as well as long-lasting and positive relationships.
It is the driving force that energizes and informs every effort we make on behalf of our clients. Whether our task is to develop a professional web design, provide valuable marketing consulting services, create a fully-integrated marketing strategy or give life to your collateral material with our highly personalized copywriting services, our inspiration and our commitment is derived from the single-minded purpose that can be summed up by saying if we help you get where you want to go, we will get where we want to go.
This fuels our desire to create meaningful and profitable results for you. It gives purpose to what could otherwise be a job to do rather than a client that looks to us and trusts us to do exactly what we say we are going to do - create results!
When I was a child, I had no idea I would end up in web design, web development and marketing. Way back then, televisions were still black and white, there were 3 channels in operation (the major networks), and they all stopped broadcasting at midnight. I did not see my first color television until I was 9 years old. I think that we can all agree that these are not the credentials one needs to succeed in the fast paced and rapidly changing field of web design and web development.
I began my career in the Graphic Arts industry immediately upon graduation from UMass/Boston. I entered the sales force of a company that sold paper to the printing industry and remained there for many years until I saw the handwriting on the wall, believed paper would become a commodity, and understood that I could not really make a difference for my customers anymore.
In 1994, I left the paper business and opened a printing company of my own. Somewhere around 2002, history repeated itself and I saw printing fast becoming a commodity where I could not make much of a direct difference to my customers, yet again! The Discovery Communications Group found its genesis in this awakening.
I am the kind of person who needs to make a difference in everything I do. It is important to me that I leave this world a much better place than that which I found when I arrived. My greatest goal is to become the person I was originally intended to be, and I believe that I will reach this lofty level at the very same moment I take my last breath.
