Sometime around August of 1964 Bryan
Knox was conceived. Born May 6, 1965 the second son of Linda Knox,
now Linda Jackson, another story for another time. Bryan grew up,
went to Preschool, Elementary School, High School and College. Many
fun times were had.
1986
Graduated from Central Academy of Commercial art (a private commercial
art and advertising School) in Cincinnati, Ohio. With a degree in
advertising and commercial art. I moved to Chicago to work with
Wasselle Graphics as a graphic artist creating key-line, mechanicals
and artwork for ads and comps.
1990
Accepted a position with Leo Burnett, Chicago. Working on accounts
as a graphic production artist for clients such as Phillip Morris,
Keebler and Dewars. I was able to flex the design muscle with some
of the best layout artist in the market.
1992
The best thing to ever come into Bryan's life was delivered on the
morning of March 23rd, Sarah Nicole Knox. The following year I moved
the family to Central Kentucky to raise my daughter around family.
Took a position as Sr. Director of Production and New Media at Cornett
Advertising, an influential Advertising agency in Lexington, Ky.
I worked directly with clients to develop
and produce logos, web sites ad advertising materials for the growing
client base of the agency. Interjecting design ideas into an infant
internet market and progressively building a strong skill set. The
Internet was slowly beginning to gain popularity as a marketing
tool the web development industry began to shift to the ad agencies.
This was a great opportunity to gain client interest by learning
web development and marketing. My main interest was information
architecture and search engine optimization. Something that was
not often done in the early years of the web. Although the rules
have changed over the years it is still a viable part of web development.
Bringing the Internet to clients as a marketing tool instead of
another brochure, created clients who understood return on investment.
Teaching them the power of using the Internet as the tool it was
designed to be.
1998
Moved back to Chicago to take a position with Kaleidoscope Imaging
to start a web development department to facilitate clients needs
for web design/marketing and development. Now with guns loaded,
I offer the ability to design, develop, optimize and submit to search
engines effectively along with the web marketing experience to back
it up.
2003
I decided to work for myself and on my own terms, acting as representative,
consultant, and designe. My one on one approach works well and is
cost effective for my clients. I do not worry about account executives
diluting the clients needs.
2004
Still doing what I do
2005
Ditto. With the exception of the birth of Emma Knox in September.
The highlight of the year and my biggest fan.
2006
Ditto.
2007
Still doing what I do and in December Henry Knox was born. Big fun
in the future.
2008
Still here.
