ODAM NAP // obscure design and marketing, news and politics

The news and links you need, according to a burnt-out cool hunter. The ODAM NAP blog will often pull from obscure second-hand sources and offer an educated opinion. Sometimes biased, sometimes neutral. I'll cover innovative products, interesting artists, under-reported news, and more. You'll often see "best of" lists for people/places/links within certain categories.

About Me

Shauner: Shaun spent 4 years in advertising and sales promotions, employed as a strategic planner and cultural anthropologist for clients such as Coors Brewing, Quiznos Subs, Miller Brewing, Bacardi-Martini, Motorola, and many more. In 2005, he left advertising to join the family business - a mid-sized microelectronics manufacturing firm. He is also active in several non-profits serving at-risk inner-city youth. When not at work, Shaun reminisces fondly about his 6 years of international DJ experience, 3 years of international surfing instructor experience, 4 years as an account planner, and his 120+ job interviews in the advertising industry. He has been recognized as a valuable change-agent and a rebellious advertising professional. He works well on new business strategy teams and intimate brainstorms. He has made as many friends as enemies due to his tendency towards deconstruction and creativity. He’s been sighted pushing boundaries that most people don’t think need to be pushed.
