Hello all,

My name is Anthony Perez, a 25-year-old Puerto Rican with Jersey roots, Colorado ties, and a New York state of mind. I’m an amalgam of cultures, socioeconomic classes, and professions and I’m proud of it.

I’ve been everything from a retail stock boy to a waiter to a door-to-door salesman, but my journey into professional employment started when I was 12-years-old. It was at that age that I initially started writing for an independent entertainment portal called Digital Planet. After a year-and-a-half or so there, I began development of my own videogame publication which launched in 2001 as Gaming Nation.

Over the years the site has seen many new names and designs, and at its peak reached traffic levels of 100,000 unique visitors per month. Now known as Smashpad, I’ve handed the keys off to my Senior Editor after my career in advertising and my interest in film took over my mind and heart.

Speaking of, my advertising career in strategic work started with an internship at TasteSpace.com, running their online marketing initiatives and utilizing the knowledge I had accumulated while running SmashPad (and its many iterations). In my month there, I raised site traffic my 300%. After that, I worked for two years as an intern and then Media Coordinator at Flying Point Media, an online direct marketing agency.

I’m currently a strategist at McCann NY, and have done stints with StrawberryFrog and Conversation.

As for the whole film thing, I’ll be shooting my first short film this year. Keep an eye out.
