David Shackelford’s Summary

After an amazing year at the world's biggest blogging company, I intern-hopped over to Naked Tokyo, where we handle marketing strategy for some of Japan's largest brands. Whether it's in Japanese or English, online or off, one-on-one or one-to-hella, I'm all about communicating.
