Sounds like a really cool gig Inspireme. You have any contacts in the automotive racing gear department? The Good Year shoes were cool, but Puma still has a pretty strong hold on that sector.

I normally shy away from 80 page resumes ... but you had some real nice stuff in there!

thanks for the comments-
yea some of my friends in the biz- giving me a hard time (in a joking way) with the 80pgs. but I think if you can justify having 80 it can work. I looked at it as more of a book/ teaser. I had it printed and I mailed it out to companies, along with emailed it.
looking back on it now-- that mostly white negative space can be a issue to keep white, esp the cover and back.
