Hello one and all.

For those who are visiting my site for the first time, it’s a pleasure to welcome you to ChampagneBlue.
I use this as my personal and professional blog and portfolio.

Julz (aka JFD)

Who am I? Your worst nightmare? Possibly. A three-headed demonic hound? Maybe.
In the real world, I’m a 23 year-old Advertising student who lives and breathes everything Toronto. And no, Toronto is not in Spain. :)
I’m a big fan of design. Actually, I’m a big fan of web design, which led me into other forms of design. I’ve set my heart on Advertising, the crazy, fantastic realm where the insanely overworked and unbearably intelligent people seem to congregate.

Why advertising?

Why not? It’s not just a job filled with new clients, products and selling points. Nay, ’tis where the new thinkers of a new generation are headed. I’ve never met as many smart, funny and well-rounded individuals as I have in this industry. The few creative directors, photographers, typographers and copywriters I’ve had the pleasure to meet have always surprised me. They inspire me. I’m not in it for the glory or the piles and piles of cash (no, really!) I’m in it for the fun! WOO! FUN?

Champagneblue.com was created on the 17th of September 2003, so it’s not that much of a baby anymore (it’s still my baby!). It has gone through many reincarnations (most of which shall never be mentioned ever again) and it will most likely go through a few more.

Anyway, my babbling isn’t what you’re here for. Take a look around, see what I’m about and feel free to comment on anything.
