I’ve been in the advertising/design business for 10 plus years. In that time I’ve managed to learn a thing or two about being efficient. When I first entered the workforce, I was like any other young designer. I thought I knew programs in and out, and could execute any project just by being handed a job order. After about a week of working I learned that I didn’t know crap and needed to up what I can do and how I worked. I made an effort to know the programs better than my coworkers. I spent extra time in them doing fake projects and forcing myself to find new ways to work. Setting up a workflow that works for me and I continually try to better.

At MMT we do a fair amount of pro-bono work. Our most recent endeavor has been with UNICEF’s program called the TAP Project. Coinciding with World Water Week, TAP Project raises money through local restaurants by asking patrons to donate $1 for the glass of water they usually get for free.
Working with fellow MMTeam members, Jeff McClellan (partner), Jenny Holland (designer) and Emily Padden (writer), we developed an identity, posters and an online presence to help promote the week-long event.
