Storm Williams’s Summary
Strategist, Interactive Producer and Creative Director with an extensive marketing, advertising, PR and interactive background spanning 20 years.
I've been helping companies that can't focus on the future because they may have been consumed by the task of keeping the doors open one more day. These companies have lost the ability to think 30, 90 or 180 days out. I help them get to where they want to go and provide a path to out of the woods.
