Gregory Ng

I am a direct marketer with a classically-trained graphic design background. I develop effective, integrated, results-driven marketing programs for Global Fortune 1000 clients with an expertise in the high tech and financial verticals.
My experience spans across all marketing communications channels (internal and external) including: mail, collateral, brand identity, interactive, broadcast, print, out-of-home, and events. I am also a social media strategist with experience in viral internet marketing, social networking, web promotions, SEO, and paid search.
I operate under the belief that strategic marketing and breakthrough creative can fall under one roof.
As an accomplished blogger in the tech, marketing, and parenting fields, I have published over 500 articles online and have written on subjects ranging from hacking your iPhone to how to change a diaper. My articles have been covered by all the top Tech and Apple websites including: The New York Times, Wired’s Gadget Lab, The Unofficial Apple Weblog, Fake Steve Jobs, Daring Fireball, and iLounge.
As Chelvis, The Chinese Elvis, I was a cultural phenomenon started by an inside joke and ending with a website attracting over a million hits, a story on BBC, and a mention on various news channels around the world.
