People in this "design" space often are lumped in
together with other things that just make no sense at all. Who ever heard
of the best analytical minds also being the best at dance or painting or
poetry. When it comes to needs, companies often want the best left AND
right brained person they can find and call them creative.
I'm pretty sure such an animal does not exist. In fact, may I be so bold as to say you don't want your best creatives coding at all. You want them thinking up new innovative ways to solve the communication problems before them. Likewise, the best coders are those that think in analytical terms that require left brained thinking - which can be foreign to right brained creatives.
Don't get me wrong. My best work involves thinking. But a different kind of thinking. Rather than deal in absolutes, I'm constantly looking at "what if" scenarios. And that helps get the results that clients want - unique - beyond the realms - ideas that are memorable and fun.
So if I'm working on a tag line, a mobile app, or even a new URL, it's a safe bet you want me to partner with a real coder for the tech portions so I can deliver better ideas. And better ideas are what I do best. You'll see. :)
