Advertising is one of my "fun" areas to work. Like panning for gold, you never know when you are going to find the big creative nugget amid all of the dust at the bottom of the pan. I was lucky enough to study under Jon Anderson at Utah State University. It was one of the top 10 programs in the country. After hours of cut throat critiques, dye marker sniffing and a butt permanently formed to the chair in the computer lab I think I came away with a better appreciation of the ad world.
