John’s marketing career started right out of college when he was promoted from sales to leading a sales team for a fast growing insurance company. The owners of the company allowed John great freedom to work on all manner of marketing programs including incentive travel programs where a full two hundred passenger charter of agents and their spouses vacationed in exotic locations around the world.

If years of experience in graphic arts, an unlimited creative imagination, and a drive to deliver the best end product are prerequisites for a Director of Creative Services then Julie is right at home with The GRA Group.
Julie’s degree in Advertising and Fine arts coupled with her years of service with some of Cleveland’s most avant-garde agencies have fine tuned her graphics skills to a very high level. Not satisfied with just graphic ability Julie spearheaded our company’s move into computer graphics and is continually upgrading our systems and hardware. It seems like there is no end to her requests for upgrades, training and expansion; and that is a good thing for GRA and our customers.
