Douglas Design Works isn't a large corporation or firm. It's simply a name attached to a URL floating around in the vastness of The Internets. One person runs the show here, and that's me.

As a creative professional, I'm continually seeking new challenges to add to my list of life experiences. From Zorbing down a grassy knoll in a human-sized hamster ball to ziplining across jungle canopies, I welcome most adventures—especially if they require a helmet.

My recipe for design is as closely guarded as the eleven herbs and spices KFC has kept confidential since the Colonel fried his first drumstick, though I do carefully season to suit the client du jour. I'm not giving away all my secrets...but here are a few to whet your appetite.

Ten Things You Won't Learn From the Resume

1. Least Favorite Halloween Candy: Bit-O-Honey is disgusting and so is its packaging.
2. Knowledge and experience comes from: Far too many years as a beanie-and-bow-tie-clad food service worker.
3. The Office character with whom you most identify: I understand how important Pretzel Day is, so I'd have to say Stanley.
4. Creative tool you can't live without: Thesaurus.
5. Bacon Number: Two. I once had lunch with Clint Eastwood, who directed Mystic River, which Kevin Bacon starred in.
6. Guilty Pleasure: Getting into other people's photographs.
7. If called as a contestant on The Price Is Right, you'd most like to play: Plinko would be awesome. But I'd probably get stuck with the Race Game because I can't run, and I don't need a grandfather clock, dinette set, personal sauna, or golf clubs.
8. Strangest self-diagnosed phobia: I'm not keen on beards, so I guess that makes me Pogonophobic.
9. What you would do if you knew you could not fail: End world hunger.
10. Humiliating song you'll admit is on your iPod: Come On Get Happy by The Partridge Family.
