Breaking into advertising is no easy task. It takes skill, knowledge, passion and sometimes sheer luck.
What if I told you, you could create the opportunities necessary to get the job you want? You have to know what you want then work backward.
This is what Natalie Alcide has done. She is an art director at Grey Group in New York City. What started with a love for photography, she realized that her ability to identify exciting aesthetics led her to stumble into advertising.
Natalie's an art director attempting to break the ordinary.
