Who cares! This is really exciting. This is the first award I’ve received since I started working in the advertising industry. Hopefully project I’ll work on in the future will also get recognized, but this one is the first, which also makes it the most memorable.

Interactive GoldThe West 57th Street website was designed last year for Hilton Grand Vacations and remains website was designed last year for Hilton Grand Vacations and remains one of my favorite portfolio pieces. It was the first project I designed that really made me feel like I could make it in this industry. That’s why I’m glad this project is what got me my first award.

I’d like to thank the Academy for this unbelievable image of a statue (hopefully a matching physical statue will show up in the mail at some point). Thanks to Will for giving me a chance and Matt for being an excellent flash developer and making this site happen. I also want to thank my Mom, Ashley and Rick for their support throughout the years. You guys are awesome.
