On November 1, 1993, I formed what became Round2 Communications, a full service intergrated media agency located in Los Angeles with a branch in San Francisco.
Prior to Round2 Communications, LLC I was Director of Media & Public Relations at LA Gear in Marina Del Rey.
I came to Los Angeles in 1985 from New York and I worked for keye/donna/pearlstein. In New York I worked for a variety of agencies that included Ogilvy & Mather, William Esty & CO, Ketchum, Y&R and Doremus & Co.

Company Description
A full service integrated media agency located in Los Angeles with an office in San Francisco.
I began my career when there was no such thing as a mega holding company. The time was the late 70s and the place was Doremus & Company. Today Doremus & Company is part of Omnicom. From Doremus I spent a few weeks of employment at Y&R. I was hired by Polly Langbord, I think that's how she spelt her name. I was fired in about 3 months of being hired. From Y&R I worked at the New York office of Ketchum, followed by William Esty & Company and finally at O&M. I loved O&M and I stayed for 5 years.
In 1985, I went to Los Angeles for what I thought was going to be 2 years. I never went back. I worked for a hot creative agency keye/donna/pearlstein and then LA Gear.
In 1993, I started what is now Round2 Communications, LLC a full service intergrated media agency located in Los Angeles and San Francisco. The company has grown and now we are in discussions to buy an agency in London.
