| Creative Team
Our creative team develops the big ideas-ideas that sell.
Andrew Macris
Creative
Director
Strength: Creating entertaining marketing campaigns
that push the envelope and get results.
Weakness: His love for his vintage 1977 Gibson
Les Paul electric guitar and Marshall stack.
If your creative marketing approach is stagnant and stale, Andrew
will rescue it from the depths of disappointment. His out-of-the-ordinary
yet on-target creative will be music to your ears. Andrew’s
15 years of experience as a creative director and copywriter includes
producing innovative campaigns for national companies, including KinderCare,
the National Federation of Independent Business, Citibank and many
others. While your success is his favorite award, he has more than
his share of the other kind, including Addy’s, IABC Gold Pens,
PR News Integrated Communications awards, National Postal Forum Excellence
awards and many more.
Originally from Brinklow, Md., Andrew earned his bachelor’s
degree in marketing from the University of Tennessee and has nearly
completed his MBA in finance and international business at the University
of North Florida. That’s one smart creative director!
David B. Lee
Creative Consultant
Strength: Creating striking designs that
force consumers to take action.
Weakness: Anything Land Rover, or just
plain British. Cheerio!
For design that sells, and that creates the image you want in
the marketplace, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more battle-tested
art director anywhere. David is a highly decorated veteran of the
Jacksonville advertising scene, having won more Addy’s than
just about anyone in town. He’s been honing his skills for
over 14 years for some of the biggest and best agencies—and
clients around. Now, he brings his depth of experience and lightning-fast
design skills to the table for AXIA clients.
David graduate with honors from the University of North Florida
where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in graphic design and a
Bachelor of Arts in communication/fine arts. AXIA is pleased to have David as a partner affiliate.
Michael Kozlowski
Web Guru
Strength: Understanding how and when to communicate
with customers online.
Weakness: Rainy nights spent curled up
with a good programming manual.
Web sites. Email marketing. Banner design. If you’re online,
you’re in Michael’s playground. He brings more
than 12 years experience in information technology and seven years
in Internet technologies. Michael has expertise in IT administration
and graphic design, and he has developed more than 100 Web-based
enterprise projects. AXIA is pleased to have Michael as a partner affiliate.
Chad M. Landenberger
Associate
Art Director
Strength: Designing outstanding
marketing materials that exceed clients’ expectations.
Weakness: Wanting to be a robot but realizing
it doesn’t pay very well.
Chad is the epitome of imagination.
At the age of five, he wanted to be a robot. Two decades later,
his favorite cartoon is still “The
Transformers,” and he enjoys futuristic machines driven
by artificial intelligence. These visions of the future coupled
with the digital revolution in computer-based design led Chad
to the University of North Florida, where he earned a degree
in fine arts. Although he’s a talented computer-based
designer, Chad is also an accomplished artist with the ability
to transform pen and ink into illustrations of exceptional quality.
His design work and illustrations for an “under the radar” band
named The Damage was a hit. For more than 10 years, Chad has
designed promotional posters, logos, brochures, fliers, Web
sites and an occasional illustrated story. At AXIA, Chad is
ready to help transform your marketing needs into award-winning
marketing campaigns.
