Taking a Break - Peru here we come!

Posted by Joe on Friday, January 24, 2014, In : Personal Life 
As mentioned before I am taking a mental and physical break from work since leaving Spunlogic/Engauge/Moxie/Publicis at the beginning of the year.  My wife and I are heading to Peru to see Lake Titicaca (hehe) and Machu Picchu by plane, train, and foot.  

Here is a map of our itinerary:





Here is the trip description from G Adventures

We Live in a Mobile Dominant World Now

Posted by Joe on Saturday, January 11, 2014, In : Mobile 
For years we have joked that NEXT YEAR will be the Year of Mobile.  This is a shock to no one, but I can now tell you from personal experience that the tipping point has already occurred, where people are using mobile devices/tablets more than desktops/laptops.

On January 2, 2014, I announced via this website that it was my last day with 
Spunlogic/Engauge/Moxie/Publicis, after six years with the agency.  I posted the announcement on my primary social networks: LinkedInTwitterFacebook, and ...

Choosing a Spouse or Career

Posted by Joseph M on Monday, January 6, 2014, In : Agency Life 
Today was the first time since college that I woke up on a Monday without a job.  For some, that might be a terrifying experience, but I have to say that I am actually a bit relieved.  

After leaving the comforts of my big agency job last week, I think the best path for me is to take some time (maybe a few weeks) to decompress and think about what I would like to do next.  I am fortunate to be in the position that I can support our family without immediately taking my next job.

Saying goodbye to Spunlogic/Engauge/Moxie

Posted by Joe on Thursday, January 2, 2014, In : Agency Life 
Saying goodbye is never easy.  It has been a brilliant six year run at Engauge - now known as Moxie and part of the Publicis Groupe.  I have been very fortunate to have formed some relationships that will last throughout my life.  

I have been very proud to have been given the opportunity to represent the hard work of many exceedingly talented people to some of the top brands in the world including: Cisco Systems, Newell Rubbermaid, AMC Theatres, Chick-fil-A, AT&T, SweetWater Brewing Company, ...
