I just watched new jack city again for the first time since it came out and was blown away. It's stood the test of time and your performance was amazing. Loved how convincing your rage was at the end when you finally got to catch Nino.

What do you think of the grind and dispose culture of agencies like Crispin Porter + Bogusky? Do you think large agencies are worse now than in your day?

I ask because I've worked at smaller digital marketing agencies and for a while I was intrigued and felt like I couldn't fully test myself in my marketing career unless I worked at a large agency.

However, after finally interviewing at CP+B and seeing many of my suspicions confirmed about a culture of overworking and high turnaround, I wasn't impressed.

Have you written any books or publications that are available for purchase online? I'd love to read more about your story, both in advertising as well as running your non-profit.

I truly appreciate your feedback. It's great to have the insight of someone that had a successful career in advertising during one of its most exciting times.

I'm not sure if I can call myself an entrepreneur, but I found that I like working with my hands and especially enjoy furniture restoration and woodworking. I have an exit plan for a business that involves restoration and eventual design of my own furniture and items for the home. I don't think I have the stomach to work in advertising and marketing my whole life, even if it's what I'm good at and other people want me to!
