Twenty-seven year old Marlon runs his own web design company and is ALWAYS ON. He relies on a high-bandwidth connection and webcam to attend on-line meetings with his clients and then tweak and upload all updates in record time. As his own boss, he is free to organize his schedule and manage his workload, thus setting aside essential time to work on his real passion: photography. Free as a bird, all senses alert, Marlon is on the prowl for the unnoticed angle of an art deco building or the storytelling shadow that falls across a face. And while he is wandering here and there, he can always be reached in case of an unforeseen professional obligation. His photographer's website plays the role of an interactive virtual assistant, allowing him to book shoots, copyright and sell images, all online.
"My clients, friends, family...We can interact visually and creatively and that's what I like!"
Being ALWAYS ON gives him the freedom to balance work and passion, keep his finger on the pulse of his city and remain effective at all times, in any situation. As it works out, Marlon is able to make cutting edge communication tools work for him instead of the other way around: they actually allow him to combine his professional and artistic activities to their fullest potential.
