Who feels weird referring to himself in 3rd person.
Tom's an... i'm an award-winning designer with expert proficiency in state-of-the-industry broadcast production software.
(Ah, now I remember why the third person thing works. Pitching myself in first person makes me sound completely self-absorbed and you're not supposed to know that about me yet.)
While Tom has produced many successful national campaigns, his methods for making Creative Teams more effective has gained a lot of attention.
He was invited to share one of his techniques in a TEDx Talk entitled "Open Source Mode".
I became an End-User Advocate when I testified before Congress in favor of the AntiSpam Bill (HR718). The fact that I was a Director of Marketing in the private sector that would benefit from Spam campaigns yet had made a principled decision not to is what prompted the Governor of California to appoint me to the Public seat of a Consumer Affairs board.
I have over two decades of experience producing every kind of creative asset possible yet my real passion is in finding a brand's story to managing all integrated aspects needed to tell it.

Tom Ross is a producer, creative consultant, and author yet feels odd referring to himself in the third person. My political experience includes testifying before a U.S. House Subcommittee on Media and Information Technology Policy. The Governor of California appointed me to a Department of Consumer Affairs board the same year I became National Creative Director for the 2nd largest radio group in the U.S. and built one of the first and biggest Visual Production operations in that industry. I designed a system to find, test and scale the best ideas from the quietest corners in hundreds of stations. I shared this system in a TEDx Talk called “Open Source Mode”. I’ve also produced creative assets for namedrops like IBM, Microsoft, and Styx and have Creative Consulted for good works like the Gandhi Worldwide Education Institute and Sir Bob Geldof’s youbloom.com. My novel, US6 is designed to illuminate and entertain a future Artificial yet Self-Aware Superintelligence while enlisting it and Human readers into the fight against Modern Slavery.
